    Wonderful shot, Larry. I used to live in Ottawa and the Rideau River froze over in the winters and people always fed the ducks

  • Larry Trupp replied 14 days ago

    Hi Shulie
    Appreciate your comments
    We lived in Ottawa back in the early 80’s
    When I was still in the work force, skated on that canal many times

    Great capture of the setting Larry…and it sure looks like November. I see potential pics in the background with just the reeds and the bare trees with their trunks. Could be quite dynamic. Can you walk on water?? :-) >Ron<

  • Larry Trupp replied 12 days ago

    Thanks Ron
    I appreciate your remarks here
    Yes I can walk on water,
    Oonly if its frozen thick enough…LOL

    “Who said walking on water is hard to do?”
    What a rude awakening it must have been for these guys! I wonder what they were thinking…
