Skating was pretty much hopeless that day, but the guy with studded tires sure had a blast.

I need to get my KTM out. Already scraped my leg really good in the garage bumping into my tires! Good times!
A semipro dirt bike racer I knew said to try riding my dirt bike on the ice. I thought he was crazy, but it did help up my skill level, and crack a helmet too. No studs, not glare ice either, but it wasn't so bad riding on it. It sure accentuated everything. Another friend of mine actually bent his bars on the ice. It's not as crazy as one would think. Mostly...
EDIT: My fat bike has studded Dillinger tires. Yeah, those studs are DAMN SHARP!!! I've gotten scratched quite a few times. Enough I actually moved it in the garage. (The wife says that takes a lot to get to that point.
)
I am more concerned about the person who lost his body and just the boots remain on the ice.
Sony A7rIII with 70-200 lens @200mm. Unfortunately, aperture was f4.5. Wish I had stopped down more for greater DOF where the forward blackbuck antelope would be in focus.
The holidays are over but the small Poinsettia is still going strong:

The boots are mine. I had just put on my skates then took the picture before attempting to skate on ice more than 2 feet thick, but the surface had recently melted and refrozen during a heavy warm west wind. There were literally tiny ripples on the surface making skating quite challenging. Tomorrow's post will better illustrate that.

The architects wanted to build two, as part of an arch, one on each side of the bridge , but then the city of Vancouver decided for just one.

maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place // paul coelho
