Ice Photos

[Draco]

I took some quick ice photos earlier. Tomorrow I am going to grab my DSLR and take better pics, it's supposed to be even colder!

These are random bushes (Sally roses??) that got caught in drips of icicles from above. I got a few more, but didn't upload them yet.

Beautiful pictures.  That's the way I like to look at ice, sitting in my nice warm living room.

Ice is so pretty! Such a pain, but at least when the sun comes out it's beautiful.

 

[Draco]

thank you

My coworker and I are going for lunch to take more photos. I will have my DSLR with me. Can't wait!

Love the pics, ice can be so beautiful as long as you don't have to walk or drive in it.

Well, it's 65 & sunny here on the NC coast today, but a cold front moving in tomorrow afternoon is supposed to be bringing us some snow!

I don't know if we'll get enough to stick, but sense they are calling for sleet too, I may be getting some pictures soon as well!  

 we'll see!

I've just seen this!

What stunning shots!  Thank you for sharing.

Based on the seed pods, this is a Rose of Sharon.

Excellent pics. I salute your bravery in going out to get them.

thank you!

its not often we get this sort of ice.. so a photo-op is a photo op!

 

[angels mommy]

All we ended up getting was a lot of ice from sleet. There was a very small amount of snow just to cover it. It looks like snow, but it was solid very slippery ice!!

Of course here that meant schools & many businesses were closed for most of the week. Schools were closed from Tues-Fri.

Roads were finally pretty clear & melted by Friday.

Here are just a few shots I took. Nothing pretty like I had hoped for!  ...Just to take pictures of what we got.

Those are some very neat photos. I just bought a Nikon D3200 and am still learning. I am trying to figure out the settings to do this because I am heading to the apostle ice caves next week in Bayfield wiscounsin.
