When in Cold, Do Cold Things

I’m glad I don’t live in a really cold area of the country, I’m cold enough here in southeastern Pennsylvania. Not enough snow has fallen in these parts to really alter the landscape, so I continue to visualize vignettes of winter. That means working in a smaller scale with elements including snow, ice, frozen things and stuff that just looks cold.

Working in close-up or macro scale has always been a primary interest to me, so I don’t get tired of thinking graphically about shape, color, and texture. Here is an image I made last year of a section of frozen pond. The freeze-thaw cycle seemingly introduced some air-bubbles that were captured in various layers of the ice. Fun stuff, I just needed to be careful of not slipping into my tripod or breaking the ice.
