Here’s a couple shots from Canyon Ferry Lake. There’s still plenty of ice out there and it will be a little while longer before it thaws out. Sometimes I forget how massive a body of water this is. I was out on the North Side poking around this weekend and found some cool pressure ridges on the ice. It’s certainly makes some unique sounds out there and if you haven’t been out here in the winter, you should check it out.

Wow-A whole month has gone by since my last post! I thought I just posted this last week. Time certainly has a way of slipping by when things are going on.

As those of you who live in Montana know by now, we are in the final segment of Montana’s winter-you know, the one that last for all eternity. Brown, no snow, ugly, etc…

Don’t get me wrong, winters in Montana are beautiful, dramatic and have lots to offer in way of the outdoors, but still, the last part just seems to drag. Especially with spring looming a couple months away.

I finally did sneak out to get some Photography in last weekend and took a quick drive down to Yellowstone. I wasn’t really feeling the vibe all that well down there and was having a hard time getting inspired. I really love Yellowstone in the winter, but the weather was not cooperating and all of the wildlife seemed to be taking a vacation.

Funny but on my way down, I stopped to shoot some antelope 30 minutes from my home and on the way back from Yellowstone, again shot some stuff around the same spot. I could have saved burning all the fuel and hung out close by it seems.

Hopefully we will have a short rest of the winter and Spring will arrive early, if not we will have to start getting more creative with the, umm… bleak landscapes.
