crazy people

It was late afternoon and the freezing fog had lifted at last...
Looked out of the window and saw these crazy people on the ice...
Not far from where they were standing you could see the ice wasnt as frozen as the rest of it...
Many people fall through the ice each winter and not all are rescued...
I was happy to see them walk back towards the shore and not venture further....

Gorgeous photo, just lovely. Well, as for the people on the ice, happens here too, especially with snowmobilers taking their machines onto thin ice and.... Big vote for this image

Beautiful Winters scene for these daredevils.

Nicely composed winter scene. We have the same problem here of people falling through the ice. V

Sheer lunacy!

Great capture, Patricia. I prefer the dry land myself.

Beautiful scene, Patricia. I'm glad they returned to safely to shore. BV

yep, six dead so far this winter, it is not cold enough, yet people still go on the ice. Dramatic photo.
Guest 15-Jan-2010 15:29
Crazy indeed but thankfully safe now. Lovely winter scene Patricia!

Those tiny figures give scale to your picture. But I am pleased that they returned shore safely ... V

There certainly is drama here. Having grown up around frozen lakes, I certainly relate to the adventure of walking across open ice. Great shot!

Lovely winters image, too many people die through doing silly things like this,. v

There have been some terrible incidents of people falling through the ice but still others don't take heed!
The trees in the foreground look as if they have hoar frost on them.

Foolhardy indeed. We recently had policemen pleading with parents not to allow children riding motorized bikes onto similar frozen surfaces.
