Yes the struggle is real for the photographer and artist . It is why the inside of my house hangs on to the colorful Christmas decor way past the time when normal people have long since put it away . Today was the day to carefully remove all the lovely , colorful , memory filled ornaments . The tree is petrified and needs to leave , however there was a year that the carefully tended tree extended way into February and I called the grower and complained that the tree refused to die and was sprouting new greenery. After He got over his surprise at my call he said yes that can happen !
Well anyway there can be surprising color in the ice caves when they are accessible and even when they are not , I was so surprised looking down from the trail one March at the deep blue green of the water contrasting with a small icing of snow on the the red rock after trampling thru endless white trees and snow against deep blue skies to get there . It is the grey days that are the hardest .
You have some remarkable images of the patterns of ice slabs in pink and blue . Keep carrying on for the rest of us far away from the place we love right now .

Thank you for your note and your "colorful" descriptions. -- Jeff
Stunning. Potent.
Thank you. May you have a colorful winter. -- Jeff
Hats off to your tribute to Winter Blues. Your blue Jay capture in itself eases the pain. A great drunken colorful collection. Thanks, Jeff.
Thank you Rita.

This is so wonderful and artistically so beautiful.
Thank you. I hope you both are having a good winter.
Excellent piece, Jeff. You give words to something that affects us all in northern winters.
Thanks for reading it Bob.
