A wooden park bench creates a stark contrast to its wintery surroundings. Snow in the foreground leads to the bench, which seems to look out to nothing but more snow and white fog. Branches on a tree, to the left, bend slightly to the weight of the ice that has formed on them. A bush is below the branches and more bushes are to the right of the bench, down at the frozen water's edge. Black-and-white processing gives even more contrast to the already bleak scene. The photo was shot on the western edge of Bate Island, in Ottawa, and looks westward along the Ottawa River. A watermark to the bottom left shows the copyright symbol and a stylized font with my name, Ross Brown.

Happy #WorldPhotographyDay!

Frost covers bare trees on a small island in the Ottawa River, near Bate Island. Fog shrouds the scene as wavy water lies in the foreground, at the bottom of the photo. The top half of the photo is a thick blanket of fog, and a watermark with a copyright symbol and my name, Ross Brown, the only indication of the top of the frame. The image is processed as a black-and-white photo.

Random photo of the day. Icy mist.
