Winter Waterfall Ice Snow Rocks

Winter Waterfall Ice Snow Rocks

A winter waterfall deep in a ravine in West Virginia. The water is particularly high right now because of all the snow and rain we have been getting. Although this picture may look peaceful it is anything but quiet right here. The water is very loud but that in itself helps to drown out the noise of everyday concerns and worries. This waterfall is about 25 feet high although it may not look like it from the pictures.

A high resolution wildlife picture of a Bald Eagle with a black background. This photo is very high detailed with nearly flawless focus and crisp sharp quality. If you look at this as the full size you can actually see each feather quill and the details of each feather of the Eagle. This predatory Bird is amazing and rightly deemed the symbolic bird of the Great United States of America.

Whitetail Deer Buck Snow Falling

Whitetail Deer Buck Snow Falling

A beautiful whitetail Buck Deer with a large ten point rack trotting through the snow in the forest. This deer certainly sees me and is very alert to what is going on. Although it does not seem to be scared at all. believe it or not a deer this size can be quite aggressive if it is threatened and can be dangerous if you do not have a gun or other means of protection. Believe me antlers that size and long points like that are not for playing around. This wildlife picture would make a beautiful piece of nature wall art for your den!
