Shot on 8mm film in 1979, this vintage home movie captures a serene winter scene in Ithaca, New York. Ducks, including mallards, stand and walk on a partially frozen lake as the sun sets behind bare trees, casting long shadows and a warm glow across the icy surface. The footage exhibits classic Super 8 grain and a cool blue-purple color cast, evoking a quiet, nostalgic atmosphere. The camera remains mostly static, focusing on the calm wildlife and the tranquil, reflective water. This archival clip offers authentic, unscripted moments of nature in a cold season, perfect for documentaries, editorial content, or nostalgic storytelling.
