Paula these photos are absolutely amazing! The sunlight is hitting the ovules just right to make them glimmer! My favorite photo is the fourth one starting from the bottom. I love how the view is from the bottom!
Where I live I also got this "winter thunderstorm!" I saw a blue flash in my backyard and was thinking someone was out back with a flash light. Then I heard the thunder. A half hour later another flash of lightening and then came the thunder and then that was it. I looked it up and apparently these winter thunderstorms are extremely rare!
They are rare. I even took a short video of the storm and all you see is dar, and then the bright light. One video was pretty ironic as I caught our town plow truck going by blowing the road with his lights going in the dark and then all of a sudden lightning lit up the sky and you could tell then it was a plow truck.
I think the enlarged photos bring more life to the pictures as well, but almost too big for the page I think.
Paula, please size all your images before posting to your blog. The really big ones are difficult to view b/c we have to scroll up and down and can't see the whole thing at once.
The third one down from the top is my fave, backlighting of the ice is gorgeous.
Thank you for your comments. I am a work in progress with resizing photos to a blog. I am definitely going to work on this in future posts. I know that they are large but boy the second to the last photo captures amazing sunshine through the ice. Even at the very tip you can almost see a drop of water getting ready to drip from the tip of the icicle.
Very cool! Icicles are so pretty! I love the way they gleam in the sun! That enlarged photo is awesome!

Thanks for posting.
What great photos Paula. Very appropriate, lol. You did a great job with all of your angles and the glistening was just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe light play off the icicles in the second to last shot are gorgeous! You actually captured several "stars". Very nice :)
