We have had several snow storms this year. The snow melts in the heat of the daylight sun and freezes on the following night. The ice creates some really interesting patterns when freezes. Last week, I decided to attempt to capture some abstract images of these ice patterns. These images were made of the ice that formed along the kerb at the edge of our street.
Some leaves got trapped by the freezing ice. This created a nice contrast between the white of the ice and the orange/brown of the leaves.
Further down the street, an ice arc was formed at the edge of the street.
This image reminds me of the images of nebulae that were captured by the Hubble telescope.
The was a wide variety of different colors that could be found. This looks like the surface of an ice planet against the dark of the night.
Did someone throw out some ice crystals out into the street?
That was a lot of fun capturing all those ice patterns. Some thing that would be difficult to do in the spring or summer!
