Does anyone besides me, see the dragon's head in this single shot view of my iced over pond? (5D3, 70-200 f2.8 + 1.4 TE @ 230 mm, 1/20s, f/16, iso 200, tripod and polarizer)

This is another from that well of inspiration, your iced over pond. Excellent, and I like the interpretation. Easy to see the dragon, and all the swirls of color make for a beautiful abstract.

If you see a Dragon head in this image Mark, that's okay. Actually what it does remind me of is one of those Chinese Dragon paintings. This is pretty fascinating from the standpoint of abstract ice art. And I know you are a master of this. Unfortunately in my locality, it rarely freezes and this winter while it has been below freezing, it hasn't been cold enough to create ice patterns that even come close to this. This is really amazing. You need to give yourself a WP for this one.

Looks like an abstract paint splash painting! I can definitely see a dragon! Must not be a fire breathing dragon though, or it wouldnt have let itself be frozen! Great ice image, Mark.

Yes, but I also see a caribou lying down. Very colorful and intriguing with lots of other things to see in it. What provides the colors? Leaves? Reflections?

I love it Mark. This is excellent. I do indeed see the dragon's head. I also see a sea dragon with all of its frilly fringes. Take your pick. Cool shot. Great colors, put it on your wall.

Funny, I see a moose head. I do like this abstract regardless of what one may see in it.
