Water Hard As Stone

Posted by Bill Ault (GBA, Canada) on 20 January 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter, Long ago.

@Earnest: a big bonfire... I like this one though the islands in the background, the colours are a pushed a bit to the blue for effect. Tomorrow we return to land but continue the theme...
