Wednesday Walk down to a frosty lake

Some posts don't need many words, especially when they include original photography. This post is such a post. It was a crisp cold November morning and, as usual the kids had me up at 6:30am. I got them breakfast and made their school lunches and there was still plenty of time to get out for an early morning walk with Coco. The sun was just coming up and there wasn't a cloud in the sky, just the vapour from holiday jetsetters visible overhead.

Walk Time

I got Coco's harness ready and off we went for our walk. She brings me for a walk more than I bring her for a walk. She has that boundless Springer Spaniel energy in every step. I knew that the lake would look surreal. Disaster struck while I was down there and my phone battery died, so my photography exploits were cut short. Luckily I did manage to capture some photos though, which I'll share now.

Gate to renewables

I thought these windmills looked beautiful set against the colours of the early morning Winter West of Ireland sky.

Disaster struck? 😮 That lake with the mist sweeping above it is pretty! Too bad your time there was cut short.

Oh shit!! Sorry, I forgot to say what the disaster was! I was being dramatic! My phone battery died!! 😬😁

Fucking cold one this morning mate!! 630. Jaysus. I have 2 sick kids at home so had to take the day off. Mother a jaysus. I have some cabin fever now. If that lake was near me Id be jumping in now

Ya something is going around, two of our lads off school as well, but not a notion in the ocean will they sleep in like 🙈

The photos over the lake are so beautiful and indeed surreal
I hope the disaster wasn’t to bad

Beautiful post

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

Thanks a million, delighted to join ye and the disaster was that my phone battery died just when I was starting to take some photos. I forgot to say in post, so updated it now. At least I got some photos anyway. Had it died before I got any pics, I'd have felt frustrated..

The Wednesday Walks are a great idea and I'll join you guys again.

Ok that’s not to bad happens to us all luckily you got some photos as you say before it died

Really i love walking in nature .so nice feeling 😊😊🤩

Ya I love it too, nature is amazing.

Man, don't you hate it when the phone died at the very most important moment?

I am all about those morning walks with the dogs! Amazing colours in the morning, the frost is all worth it!

Ya the time was a ball ache. There was this driftwood stuff on the lakeside and I was about to take some nice photos of it with lake in the background. I think it would have made a good photo. I guess I'll never know!

Ya the early morning walks are A1.

wow, you're right, the lakes looks stunning and creepy and haunted and every else awesome too!

What a great walk- so very early though...

Thanks very much for your comment and engagement. 6:30am doesn't even seem early anymore, as my kids wake up early so often! They slept until 7am this morning which was a great bonus!! 🤣

I don't know much about meteors but those pictures look freezing! Brrrr.

Ya man, it was proper brass monkeys cold, but it was dry, so all good.

I'm loving this dropping of sweet tunes into your comments man, keep it going. I'm a big fan of People Under The Stairs. Very under rated...
