I often photograph this bench along the path in Birdsong Park, always trying to find new ways to capture it. This morning, nature did that for me. Isn;t it amazing how the near side of the pond is in fall mode while the opposite is all in winter white?

The morning was cold, frosty, gloomy, and snowy. Despite these adjectives the trees of Birdsong Park in Orchard Park, NY also looked quite magical. Fortunately, the layer of snow and ice was just enough to decorate but not too much to cause damage.
