Ice Alaska Kid Slide

It's 101° F outside and I'm trying to think cold thoughts. Fairbanks, Alaska hosts Ice Alaska, an annual international ice-carving competition. The event always has a children's park, and the park always has an ice slide. This was the slide in 2011. I thought it made an interesting abstract and, above all, it looks cool.

Olympus E-5, 12-60 zoom at 46mm, handheld
f6.3, 1/50, ISO1600

C & C, please. Thanks for looking.

Very Cool, Jim!  Love all the colors and the outstanding sense of flow from the curving rows of ice blocks.
