My brother Bubba and I enjoyed an ice cold hunt in northeast Texas on Tuesday morning. Between breaking ice and dealing with the mud and freezing rain, the hunt had all of the ingredients for a timeless memory.

Man, I love doing this...

I like the cool color balance -- looks like it was VERY cold.

Man, I love the way you've got Bubba wading into freezing water like it was a bathtub. Does anything phase that guy?!?

Great imagery.

Love the set. Way to document the experience.

The only thing missing is an example of the brillance of their feathers in the light. not exactly the day for that? Its hard to make happen with flash light.
