A slippery slope. Frozen tire tracks on the pier made a nice reflection this morning as the sun cast its first rays.

I woke up to a blue morning of clouds and freshly fallen snow. It’s a far cry from what I had just experienced over the past few days, and I really felt discouraged from going out to take a photo.
Once I got out there, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, and the blanket of snow along with the icy river made for a good photo.

The thermometer read 6 degrees when I woke up this morning, with a sub-zero wind chill. February has been a brutal month so far, but today I bundled up and braved the cold.

The sky was flooded with color from the rising sun. A thin, slippery layer of ice covered everything in sight. A family of geese sat silently and still in the icy cold water. Chunks of ice floated down the Hudson. And there I was, lying flat on my belly on a freezing cold patch of ice, snow, and sand, trying to compose the perfect shot.

A family of geese accompanied me this morning to watch the sunrise from this icy cove. At 34 degrees, it was considerably warmer than most other mornings so far this year.
I’ve photographed this spot several times recently, but today I just couldn’t pass it up because seeing all this ice in the Hudson River is such a rare occurrence. It was nice to have the geese around too.
