Capturing a Winter Moment

We've had a cold snap in the Grove of late, and on my walk the other morning, I noticed that the main creek had completely frozen over. For those of you who live in colder parts, that may not sound very exciting--but this is the South, and you must remember that we panic at the very mention of snow and/or ice!

Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera at that moment, and by the time I got back down to the creek (several hours later), much of the ice had melted. Still, I wanted to try and capture a new and beautiful wintry moment. It isn't full of snow-capped peaks and waterfalls frozen into icicles, but hey, it's home.

Hmmm, wonder what all the river sprites and water nymphs do when the creek freezes over?
