The Sky In Ice

After a few days of cloud, fog and snow the skies finally cleared. I managed to catch the last few
minutes of light before the sun dropped behind the foothills. It's been mostly freezing but the
sunlight was enough to cause some snow to melt slowly and refreeze as icicles. In this case the
back lighting resulted in a pleasant catch of the blue sky in the ice. Simple pleasures..........

I really like how the icicles reflect the blue! Nice and sharp!

And we've been hot around Atlanta. Love the shot, but I'm so dreading it getting cold here. Love the shot, Dave. But stay warm!
Guest 13-Dec-2007 13:02
Simple it may be, but so effective too,Dave! Keep warm.:>)

Simple but very effective.

That IS excellent! Very edgy style for a simple country capture. Last night's capture had a similar feel. Nice artistic direction Dave. g

Cool shot. They're so evenly spaced, too.
