Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera January 1st 2009. Click image for larger view.
I was out walking in the forest early today and I came across this field that was frozen. I really enjoyed all the grass that had frozen in the water and the trees standing around the field covered with rime.
We are having a cold period with -12C so everything outside is covered with frozen water and gives me a lot of photo opportunities.
Happy new year everyone! My resolution for 2009 is to take way more pictures and post them on this blog as I have lately been a bit lazy when it comes to photography. Don’t miss the Photos from Northern Norway 2009 calendar and my other photos with ice.

Great resolution, Thomas! Love your work so will always look forward to seeing more of it.
Happy 2009 to you and yours!
Oooh -12? Definitely not somewhere I’d want to be! I’m impressed that you take walks in that weather!
It definitely paid off though 🙂 beautiful shot!
Wow…beautiful. The grass looks like balls of soft yarn scattered on the ground. Definitely worth the -12C walk. 😉
Happy New Year!
After looking at your pictures, today I am happy to be in South Texas. Thank you.
May peace, joy, health, prosperity and killer photos fill your year.
Happy New Year!
Very atmospheric photo… It seems like it should be in a movie, perhaps the opening scene, with an ominous deep rumbling music playing…
I wish you all the best in 2009! Thank-you for sharing the beauty of your area with us through your photos.
Beautifully frozen…Excellent image…and Happy New Year to you!
Veldig fin stemning i bildet 🙂 Fine farger som passer hverandre godt.
Beautiful picture. We´re having similar temperatures here now. I guess one must be a little crazy to go out walking on the morning of the 1st of January… or a photographer.
Aaaah, beautiful. Love the contrast in the colors. Happy New Year!
I am glad to be relatively warm here in Florida, your photos do depict the haunting beauty of a winter wonderland
