For the final Macro Mondays challenge of 2021 we were asked to make a macro photo using two of the themes presented during the year. I chose "In Ice" (Feb 15) and "Forks" (Apr 26). I really enjoyed the 'In Ice' challenge when it came around. I'd never photographed using ice and I achieved some wonderful results. 'Forks' also proved to be an interesting challenge and I love my forks photos. So here's the result of the two - "Forks in Ice".
While I chose this one for Macro Mondays, I did end up with a number of other different versions for this theme - also there in my album. 😀

The visible part of this "pickle" fork is approximately 1.5" L. I processed with Topaz Gigapixel AI then cropped it a couple of times.

THE FORK - A LAKE GENEVA LANDMARK
Jean-Pierre Zaugg designed this work of art in 1995, to commemorate
the Alimentarium Food Museum's 10th anniversary. These 8 metres
of sparkling stainless steel reflect the serenity of Lake Geneva and the surrounding landscape.
California’s only major un-dammed river system, the Wild and Scenic Smith River flows down the rugged Siskiyou and Klamath Mountains. The water flowing down this section of the South Fork Smith River typically appears emerald green in color.
The mineral serpentine has a gray-green color. The Smith River watershed contains this mineral in various forms and lends its distinctive color to the flowing water.
Besides its natural beauty, the upper reaches of the South Fork affords a person the opportunity for solitude, and if you're like me, an opportunity to catch native trout and steelhead.
Happy "Looking close... on Friday!" with "cutlery".
... and thanks a lot for your views, faves and comments! :-)

The Forks' unique history continues into its bustling market. Originally two adjacent stables for competing rail companies circa 1900, the horse stalls were joined together by a courtyard and bridges to create The Forks Market, Winnipeg's incomparable shopping experience.
The Forks Market offers a multitude of shops to browse for a wide variety of specialty items and souvenirs. Downstairs, The Market features an irrresistible fresh food emporium with everything from gourmet cheeses, to meaets, organic backed goods and wine. In the upstairs Hayloft, shoppers will find items ranging from cigars and aromatheraphy products to crafts and artworks from 300 local and Canadian artisans.
A mediterranean species first recorded in Britain in 1946 but gradually spreading across Britain from the south and already known from several Scottish sites. It is easily distinguished by the very long pedipalps that appear forked due to a long appendage (the apophysis). Adults can often be seen on tree trunks with the legs held very flat and directed sideways. It is strongly associated with human settlements, especially gardens.
We returned to our new lodge where it was not raining. En route back we had had to stop due to damage by a 'typhoon' that had just passed through the area causing trees to be torn down and roofs to be torn off.

The drongo will often be found following the large herbivores as they move along grazing and browsing. These smart birds have figured out that the larger animals will flush insects from their hiding places in the grass allowing the drongos to swoop in and catch their prey.
