Ice that formed around creek side vegetation. Looked a little like a caterpillar to me. Thanks for looking.

Ice formations make excellent macro subjects. This one is a perfect example - nicely seen and done!

Very interesting find, Nancy Lea. I like the way the ice has formed around the vegetation. I also like the various ice textures from smooth and rounded to rough looking. Nice comp. A touch more contrast and/or brightness may help make it pop.

I really like the subtle shapes and reflections in the ice and those colors are really eye catching.

Whoa. That's really cool. I like the unusual colors inside the ice - and the black background.
