    Those are so pretty. The one with the diagonal stick and ‘3’ look like upside down wine glass stems.

    How lovely – more so by being so ephemeral. Brave of you to venture out to discover them!

  31. Ice bells: a good way to ring in the new year.

  32. These are fun wintry images, Eliza. One never knows what happens when winter and water collaborate.

  33. tomwhelan's avatar tomwhelan says:

    Pretty symmetrical row of baubles – nice reflections, too.

    I love this exquisite serious of photos, especially the first one. What is the weather like right now? It’s about -9F here right now. It’s going to be warmer next week.

    • Eliza Waters's avatar Eliza Waters says:

      Thank you, Maria. As I mentioned in your post, our first storm is expected overnight… 9″ they say. We have been getting a lot of rain in Dec. with warmer temps (10º above normal), so only frost at night. Our ground is just beginning to freeze the past few nights. Then mid-week a rain storm is coming with temps up to 50º… on top of the previous snow, it’ll be a mess, I’m sure!

  35. WOW love this! I have to pay more attention when down by the river to see if we have any that form.

  36. So cool to see how ice forms when we aren’t watching!
