This is astounding! We had a light coating of ice on everything this morning, after the snowstorm yesterday. I started taking the "usual" photographs of ice-covered branches, then gradually moved closer and closer. What amazed me is the detail in this single frozen drop of water! I think that the texture in the drop is from air trapped within. I have posted a larger than normal image. You HAVE to click on it to see the amazing detail in this drop of ice.

Wowee wowee wow!!! Incredible. What a job that ice can do on such a little twiggy branch. I want this on my wall, too. Uh oh, I'm running out of wall space already with all the Ken Spencers I want to hang up.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the glass slipper from Cinderella. I love the detail in the tip - beautiful.
