Remnants of ice and the first whispers of spring — ducks gather as winter loosens its hold
As winter’s grip loosens, the landscape enters a quiet transformation. This image captures that fleeting moment — ice still coats the water’s surface, yet life stirs beneath it. Hundreds of ducks gather on the melting lake, their presence signaling the shift toward spring. The pastel sky hints at warmer days, while the misty backdrop lingers in winter’s embrace. Here, the frozen and thawed parts of the lake exist in balance, embodying the delicate transition between seasons.
A long, empty road cuts through a frost-covered landscape, leading the eye into the misty horizon. The ice-covered trees line the road, their branches bent under the weight. The soft pastels in the sky contrast with the cold tones of the frozen branches. This creates a tranquil yet slightly eerie atmosphere.
A quiet winter landscape, where everything seems to slow down. The bare trees, dusted with snow, stand tall, while the soft light adds warmth to the cold scene. It’s the place that makes you stop for a moment and just take in the silence.
Early spring’s quiet pause at Pilchowice Dam on the Bóbr River.
A peaceful lakeside dock, resting in the cool, muted tones of autumn. The boats sit idle. They are waiting for their next journey. The overcast sky adds a layer of calm to the scene. The distant hills fade into a soft haze, giving the landscape a quiet, almost timeless feel.
