Southern Minnesota in January

Quiet fields and sunset between the Jefferson Lake chain and Mankato, Minnesota.  I thought this scene was one that had to be photographed in the "magic hour" light, so I pulled over on some small road and got out of my car.  That's when I realized the picture is easier to enjoy from within a heated car:  Not pictured below is the 0 degree temperature and extreme wind.  I had to want this picture...


A little farther South, and on a warmer day in November:  A girl standing on frozen Spring Lake releases cat-tail seeds.  
Canada Geese, hunkered down on Spring Lake ice, unimpressed by cat-tail seed display.
