madamemonty: Living in Australia, we only have a small area in southern highlands of New South Wales and Victoria that regularly have snow in winter, and that's a long way from where I am. I just love looking at these beautiful winter photos. Keep up the good work. ( 5 years and 1025 days ago )

Thanks "finnphotography" for your comment LIGHT PILLARS are a kind of optical phenomenon which is formed by the reflection of sunlight or moonlight by ice crystals that are present in the Earth's atmosphere. The light pillar looks like a thin column that extends vertically above and/or below the source of light. The light pillar is prominently visible when the Sun is low or lies below the horizon.

Kudos to you for getting him eye level. With this POV you pull us into the shot quickly. The colour palette transforms this into photographic art. The eyes are sharp with a slight blur on his nose and whiskers which gives the story of him having a bit of a nosh and that is the exclamation mark that delights us visually. Love this...a lot.

Wow! That's interesting! I've never seen them before but they look (and sound) really neat!
A very interesting phenomenon.
Congrats Dmitry
