Ice storm icicle

This was taken after an ice storm in December of 2008. The ice formed on the branches of a Japanses maple tree. I cropped the picture to zero in on this one icicle.

Panasonic DMC-FZ28. 17mm at F/3.4 for 1/100 sec. ISO 100.

Amazing find Carolyn. Wonderful clarity and beautiful light. Looks like Waterford crystal Christmas ornament.

Lovely texture in the icicle and the red stem contrasts so nicely with the black background.
