These have been kind of popular lately it seems. It's fascinating to look at the patterns and reflective, translucent qualities of ice up close. I dug this unusual - but unmanipulated - shot out from deep in the archives earlier and figured what the heck, I'll post it and see if anyone finds it interesting.
This is the freezing surface of Oregon's Pamielia Lake in December, 2003? maybe 04. It's a strait scan from the Velvia slide with a little contrast adjustment. As you can see, it was a blue-sky day and only this small patch of ice was in shadow. The actual scale is about 1 x 1.5 feet.

I love this - talk about a few hundred shapes to get lost in.... the blue of the sky in the ice is really great... really interesting.....

Yes, It's different and interesting. The reflection of the blue sky on the ice set's it apart.
