Views from the bridge on Christmas Eve 2019
No, on the afternoon of Christmas Eve I took the 1.2 mile walk around Beebee Lake, wearing Yacktracs for the icy paths, after a series of very cold days.

It is a picturesque structure, the bridge, spanning the mouth of a water filled gorge of Fall Creek.

Distant Sapphire III
blue sky reflected in lake waters
Cayuga Lake from the south rim of Taughannock Gorge, seen through a veil of hemlock and oak. From a place of rest with a comfortable bench. The trail descends to the lake, here we are lower and closer to Cayuga Lake.
I stood in front of the bench, resting the camera body on the fence and braced with my fingers.

Cayuga Lake from the south rim of Taughannock Gorge, seen through a veil of hemlock with a carpet of fallen oak leaves, foreground. This is a companion to the previous post, both were handheld. For this the foreground was included to increase interest. For added stability, I rested the camera body on the fence bracketed with my fingers.
