Taken last year, this is one of my favorite winter photos.
My son and I were at the lake and found these tracks. They are frozen prints leading across the thick ice all the way to the other side. We’d had a warm spell where everything turned slushy and apparently an animal of some kind – can anyone “read” these tracks?- had walked across in the slush and before the prints vanished, they froze.

At first I assumed it was a deer that made this trail, but since they are in a straight line, I’m not sure. I turned the photo into a postcard and as I’ve said, it’s one of my favorites.
