Around Center Pond

One of my favorite places in Nelson is Center Pond.  I skate on it in the winter, swim in it in the summer and explore around its edges regularly.  Today was a perfect Sunday afternoon, albeit a little cold, for a walk on the ice.  Bailey and I enjoyed walking and observing the stark beauty of nature in winter.   I decided to take advantage of the late afternoon light and use my creative side to photograph the wonders I observe.  Bailey, on the other hand, used his superior sense of smell to explore the land in a very different way.  It was so interesting to see the intensity of his concentration and what he could discover with his nose.   I couldn't capture that with a photograph, but I'll share what I observed instead.
