Like a work of art. Nature is amazing. Great photo Eliza!
Thank you, Maria! Nature is indeed amazing. đ
Love this, Eliza. The ice is mesmerizing!
Thank you, Sandy, so true!
My pleasure.
The Snow Queen!
Indeed, she is very present these days. đ
Iced air and currents. Magic!
Thank you, Allison! I could easily spend hours (despite freezing fingers) capturing images of ice… each a work of art.
Such swirling movement
I came across a nice patch of ice that day… more images to come!
This is amazing image to me, Eliza – I can’t imagine the temperature getting cold enough to form ice like this! Wonderful. đ
Thank you, Joanne. A few days of below freezing temps will do it. Very different from your tropical clime! đ
Extremely!
A true natural abstract!
Yes, it is, I never tire of looking at those amazing patterns! Thanks, Caroline.
I know what you mean. Pleasure. đ
Ice can be very artistic!
Nature is most gifted at creating beauty. đ
The best!
Indeed!
Beautiful photo – Happy New Year
Thank you kindly, happy new year to you as well. đ Thanks for your visit!
Love ice shots.
Aren’t they fun? Every warm spell erases the art and the next freeze creates more. Nature’s art gallery. đ
đ
Thank you, Ashley.
Beauty captured in ice, which is beautiful in its own way.
Ephemeral beauty is esp. captivating. Thanks, Hien!
Very nice Eliza! Beautiful image!
Thank you, Reed!
Fascinating. I ‘see’ a seal head with beautiful right eye in the left-middle.
Ice is perfect for thatâ Pareidolia. đ Thanks, Alice!
Lovely, Eliza!
Thank you, Donna! đ
Beautiful image Eliza! I love the textures! Hope you’re keeping warm and well! â¤
Thank you, Julie! This has been a mild winter so far, with daily temps above freezing. Not so long ago we’d go 6 wks without rising above freezing. The new normal, I guess, for better or worse. It does make it more comfortable for getting out for walks. đ
Wonderful swirl of ice with the dried stalks.
I think your coats might be heavier than mine! Gorgeous photo.
Thanks, Gary. Down coats are the only way to go, plus lined boots, scarf, hat and thick mittens, of course! Fingerless gloves help a bit when wielding the camera, with frequent warm up breaks required. đ
So my tee shirt and hoodie probably wouldnât cut it, huh? My bones ache just thinking about the cold.
IKR? đ
I love your nature abstract Eliza!
Thank you, Denise. Sometimes they are so good, I can’t stop snapping! đ
A thin coating of ice makes everything beautiful (but treacherous!). Be safe out there, Eliza!
Thank you, Debbie! I wear my YaxTrax. đ
It may be uncomfortable but there’s a lot to say for the beauty cold creates!
So true. If one bundles up (love my down coat), it isn’t too bad. Then you get to come in, sit by the warm fire and have a hot cuppa. đ
A beautiful capture Eliza!
Thank you, Xenia!
I envy you being able to just walk a few feet and find these almost at your doorstep, Eliza. Lucky you! đ I always enjoy seeing these “outlines”.
Thank you, Steve. Lots of ‘puddles’ these days!
That’s how things look in many places in Austinâminus the ice, of course.
Thank you, Steve. No ice there!
Nicely captured, Eliza!
Thank you, Belinda!
Nature is the greatest artist. lovely photo Eliza
Thank you very much, Agnes. đ
I find this almost hypnotic. The lines are like reflections allowed to go their own way.
Thank you very much, Susan. The art of nature, and particularly in this case of ice, does have a hypnotic quality for me. Glad you liked it. đ
This photo has the quality of a painting. It’s just stunning Eliza.
Thank you so much, Sylvia! x
amazing work
Thank you, Nancy. đ
You have such a good eye–great photo. One of my favorite books for a while (which I can’t seem to locate at the moment) was Abstraction in Art and Nature or some such title.
Thank you, Susie, much appreciated!
Looks like someone below the surface of the water is breathing and creating those swirls. Who could it be?
HI Liv! Yes, it begs a fantasy world, doesn’t it? Hope you are well.
To click trough your blog was really amazing. đ I am a student from Austria and the task to create my own blog with wordpress was given to me. To get a good mark at university it’s neccesary to have a lot of visits and follower. I need klicks every day until 25th of January. My blog is about my wonderful homeland Carinthia. In fact it’s really hard to get visits, likes and follower. It would be a pleasure, if you would follow me:

Thanks đ
Blogging takes a fair amount of time and attention. But it is a great way to virtually ‘meet’ people and ‘visit’ other lands. After seven years, I have many good friends on WP and have learned a lot. There is a saying here, that ‘the best way to have a friend is to be one.’ So I suggest you like, follow and comment on other blogs and they will do the same. đ
I really like this photo Eliza, of the psychedelic ice scene. So much color and texture and activity in this wintry spot on earth.
Thank you, Jet. Winter has many gifts to see, but one must dress for it! đ
What a beautiful photo, Eliza ⤠I've been looking forward to photographing ice, but we've not seen much more than light frost thus far. You find beauty in even the coldest garden scene! Thank you for being the first to follow the newly launched site. I appreciate that so much. Stay warm, e
Thank you for your visit and comment, E. Here, the weather today felt more like March than January with it warming above freezing and leaving the dirt roads slick with mud. Normally, our January days rarely go above freezing, so it seems odd.
I feel privileged to be your first follower! May there be many more!
Thank you so much, Eliza. It feels like early spring here, too. Believe it or not, we still have geraniums blooming on our front porch and scented geraniums that have not yet succumbed to frost. We have plenty of mud, from all of the heavy rain lately, too đ It was perfect that you are the first to follow the new site. I appreciate your likes and comments so very much. Hope you have a great weekend, Eliza ⤠⤠â¤
Lovely!
Thank you, Fi!
Nice !
Thank you, Harold!
Nature is amazing and you’ve found a wonderful combination of textures and patterns, Eliza. Beautiful! â¤ī¸
Thank you, Jane! x
Gorgeous capture! đ
Thank you kindly! đ
It’s complicated!
Yes, it is! đ
