Eliza Waters 
Very cool capture.
Thank you, Eunice (pun)!
Ooh! That’s a keeper.
Thank you, Julie! 🙂
Exquisite photo!!
Love it! XO
Thank you, Deb! 🤗
Looks like alligator hide…
Another reader from TX said the same. Ice and gators both make me shiver! 😉
A true work of nature art. Great photo Eliza!
Thank you, Maria!
What a keen eye you have!
Thank you, Anne. I love this kind of ice. 🙂
Oh my, what a finding.
Thank you, Rupali. Ice has so many forms, but this type is a favorite.
Love the patterns
Thank you, Karina, it was a lovely thing to come across.
Another beautiful world Eliza, thank you 🤗❤️🙏
Thank you, Mark. The macro world is worth a deep dive. 🙂
There is nothing more unique that ice, and I love this photo. What I don’t love is chopping and shoveling it which I did three days this week. 🙂
I agree… if only the sidewalks and driveway would miraculously stay ice-free! Thanks, Judy 🙂
Nature’s patterns at their best!
Indeed 🙂 Thanks, Rebecca!
What an interesting photo. It could be an inspiration for some kind of art project.
Thanks, I love crackle-glaze!
beautiful. I took one similar on our walk twp days ago.
Thanks, Dawn. Nature does amazing art. 🙂
Beautiful! I love the contrast between the warm brown of the oak leaf and the cool white of the ice.
Thank you, Barbara!
I’m sure there are no alligators in your world, but (apart from color) this looks for all the world like the skin on an alligator leg!
Thanks, Linda. I am glad there are no gators here, ha!
What an exceptional artistic rendition in the ice! Fabulous, Eliza.
Thank you, Monika. Nature does some amazing stuff!
Fantastic photo, Eliza, it reminds me of an intricate tile floor mosaic.
Thank you, Jet. I love when ice forms this way!
Wow looks like distressed leather….just distressed mother nature wearing her finest! Great photo.
You’ve taught me that there’s lots of beauty in ice, Eliza!

Mother Nature’s Art!
Here everything’s under several feet of snow! ❄️ Nice to see a leaf in ice 🙂
A lovely find!
Oh, that’s beautiful, Eliza! Nature offers so many beautiful works of art, doesn’t it? And your capture of it is stunning!
This is stunning, Eliza. Love it!
So very pretty! It reminds me of the leaf collection we had to make when I was younger (though we didn’t use ice as our preservative!)
