This picture looks like old postcards that I used to collect when I was a child.. How charming view! I had lost my Internet connexion, but I'm glad to be back to wish you a Happy New year!
How charming! The only ice skating I've come in contact with is the indoor-rink kind. This is much more picturesque!
Thank you for your kind words. Although I miss Mom so much, you're absolutely right that my girls give me hope for the future-- and I see her reflected in their faces every day.
Happy New Year, and best wishes for a fantastic 2010.
I liked so much this colour, in fact a perfect postcard! Thanks so much for your always kind comments in our blogs! :) Btw,I hope your daughter have enjoyed Brussels!;) *** the next time I hope you can come together and visit us in Luxembourg okay! Hugs Leia
This is a classic winter scene; classic as in timeless. In color it looks like it was taken yesterday. Sepia gives it the turn of the 20th century look. Actually a nice rich black and white would look the best I think. Snow scenes end up being monochromatic anyway.

Again, we're thinking alike. I thought of an old postcard too. Is this near the homestead? To me, it's just so January in northern NE.
Currier, Ives and Brattcat.
Interesting colour tone on the photo.
Thanks and best wishes to you all. Birdman, this is at a friend's house in Marlboro, about a twenty minute drive from Brattleboro.
What fun to have a pond that freezes so cold to skate on. Of course you can do that in Vermont. My pond has never frozen over. MB
A step back in time, skating, friends and hot chocolate.
Sunny :)
What a beautiful description of a lovely scene. I agree, it does look like an old postcard.
It is very interesting photo.
Lovely Photo, I like it!
Greetings an all the best for 2010!

(We are late I know but I had a BIG cold :(
Lovely scene, looks like a book illustration!
Yes, Kate is right, but I'm not sure about the coloration. I'd like to see what this looks like in the original color.
I love this. Reminds me of old times,
I vote for the original although I have to agree with some of the comments that the sepia works well for a postcard.
Hey, thanks for posting the original. I'd convert it to B&W, no sepia. Remember, don't eat yellow snow.

Personally, I like this photo that way, I mean sepia; I fear as b/w it'd appear too hard.
Superb image (I prefer the original) and the description evokes an added dimension...yes, dimension.
They all look great!
Very iconic, I thought of Currier and Ives but I like this better, all three versions.
