‘In spite of layers of ice, my fountain is still running,' Becky Straser reported during the mid-December cold snap, ‘I hope the fish are still alive under the ice!'

December's extended frozen spell created some unusual sites in Douglas County, such as rivers frozen over and enormous icicles in waterfalls.

Several readers captured these winter images and submitted them to our online photo gallery. We found them so picturesque that we wanted to share them in print as well.

Readers are always welcome to submit their favorite photos to our Web site at www.nrtoday.com/myscene. We select images from the various galleries to print each day in Umpqua Scene, also known as Page 3.
