The December thaw created some really unique ice sculptures on the beach.

Ice forms along seeps and seasonal waterfalls along cliffs in the Absaroka Mountains. This impressive frozen falls occurs on a cliff along the North Fork Canyon Road in Shoshone National Forest. Rocks that make up the cliff are volcaniclastic rocks that belong to the Eocene Absaroka Volcanics Supergroup.

This ones my favorite

Hanging above a slot passage through sandstone needles above Elephant Canyon in Canyonlands, these icy pointed pillars were poised to plunge on any passersby who perambulated under them. I was glad the temperatures were below freezing when I snuck by.

Alongside the steeply climbing road "Gråura" between Sunndalsøra and Oppdal several small waterfalls shed their water over the rocky roadside. And when the weather is cold, they turn in to a spectacular display of a thousand icicles, partly colored by organic material and/or iron.

I spent too much time working on other tasks today so I had to phone it in on my image. This is just an icicle hanging off of my awning and the sunlight is just starting to fade away for the day.

Each and every visit, comment and fave are most appreciated.

Frozen in my garden until the big thaw.

I've taken similar shots on Derbyshires gritstone edges, but these icicles were on my garden shed, and I used a stepladder to get the shot :)

Icicles melting...... yet I see a dancing ballerina!

Icicle River-Washington State

Icicles on my walk this morning. This little waterfall only forms after heavy rain.

These last icicles formed on some twigs a few days ago from the waves on Torch Lake, MI.

They just begged to become my slider Sunday fun photo!! It took quite a few filters to achieve this effect. And I had a tough time choosing my favorite!

Happy Slider Sunday! 😄

Eiszapfen in der Breitachklamm.

Die Breitachklamm ist eine beeindruckende und tiefe Felsenschlucht am Ausgang des Kleinwalsertals. Im Winter bilden sich interessante Eisformationen.

Erreichbarkeit: Von Riezlern (Österreich) und von Tiefenbach bei Oberstdorf (Deutschland).

Icicles in the Breitachklamm.

Breitachklamm is a gorge at the Austrian border of Germany. It is one of the most impressive rocky gorges in middle Europe. It can be visited also on many winter days. Then you will find lots of extraordinary ice formations.

You can reach it either from the German side (Tiefenbach near Oberstdorf, Bavaria) or from Austria (Riezlern).

Things started freezing up last night... so I had to take shots of some icicles on the tree.. LOL..

I hope you all had a great Monday!!!!!

I played with tree branches dripping icicles by zeroing in on a section, going heavy on the B&W, and grunting the background.

Well, again, that's what it looked like to me :)

Icicles are rare down south. What a delight it was to see these hanging from some guttering at the holiday cottage we were staying in!

It frames the Chamonix Aiguilles perfectly...

icicles and their reflections

This is a close-up HDR photo of a configuration of icicles that formed in the shallow channels beside the river.

Just a few icicles...
