Hi Ron,

It is hard to believe that I am sending out more pictures so soon but I had a great morning today. The combination of Sun, icicles, earth and sky drew me in again. Here is what I have for you.

We have had lots of snow and cloudy days. At last the Sun came out.

Actually, the early sunlight was an orange color that made the icicles golden.

You remember the picture of the distant horizon being focused and inverted in the dew ready to drop from a pine needle? Look at how the distance ridge is repeatedly refracted in the icicle.

Here is the dew drop picture.

There is so much beauty in simple things.

I will try to leave you alone for a while - unless something really great shows up.
