The first photo I posted was actually a sunrise. I use pics from the lake often for my desk top, from every season. I use this one when I want to remind myself that sometimes it's good to change your perspective on things, to be in the moment and appreciate what is right in front of you.

This has to be right up there with my all time favorite thread. We have some talented photographers here.

Bear Island Vista
 

Looks like Bearadise has a great view of nearby Dollar I$land.

A Lab, Water and His Ball
 

One Very Happy Chocolate Lab. This time he missed the ball.

I have had this Desktop background on my computer for a few years and don't have a clue where I got it from:

All these pictures have brought me smiles while I'm imagining the upcoming summer. And now that it's February I can truthfully say that "we'll be back NEXT MONTH!" Counting the days.....;)

Okay -- there are some AMAZING pictures in this thread ..... you all got me hooked

My Screensaver rotates through about 50 of our most favorite "Memories"..... below is a small selection of some of our favorite Scenic shots

(1) Fall Morning shot from Bay Point
(2) The Mount passes by daily
(3) Winter shot from Lake Shore Park (not where we live)

Finally --- If you ever see us around ... please do walk up and say hello !!

I'll play.

A simple one.

Tracks on edge of Paugus Bay

Thank you all for these incredible photos of one of the best places on this earth! I'm loving all the snow we are getting right now but can't wait to be back on the island.

Foggy morning

Windless foggy morning

Here are three of mine:
 

First: the thought of spring to come, on a small part of the Ossipees.

This weekend after the storm. "Epilogue"

After the storm
 

This was taken on our way to Fays Boatyard from the west side of Bear island.

Wow, this is a great thread. I am sitting here in my office 3 days after the "BIG SNOW" in Connecticut. These pictures sure have made my day. Here's mine from Blueberry Island, taken by my friend Andrew last summer!

Winnigal is right
 

These pictures help us make it through the winter, but also makes us pray for Ice Out so we can return to the lake. Keep the posting and pics coming!

Inspiring photos...
 

I think we should make a Winni Dot Com calendar from these original photos and sell it at our next Forum Fest.... ;)

Fall in Alton
 

:)I don't know who took this, but I've been using it. :)

And one of the dock at the Downing ramp.

Took this the morning before the Derby on Paugus Bay. It was a little chilly, -5.

awesome photo, it's really amazing!!

I use this one I took last July.

I'm currently using a wonderful watercolor posted and painted by CateP, however, I'll be darned if I can find it to post here. Anyone know where it is?

This is a photo I took back in late June 2013 that is my current background.
Just before and as the rain was getting to me! (in reverse posting order, not so good with the pics!:confused:)

I posted this thread over a year ago, and since then there must have been lots of wonderful pictures taken! How 'bout posting them?!?!? After this very harsh winter, I know that all Winni lovers are anxious for the summer to begin, and this thread seems to help us dream of what's to come......
So let's post more pictures!!!!:)

Nothing to do with the lake , but this tells me spring is coming

Taken by my neighbor George Murphy, great photographer
