Description

In front of the world of pancake-world lies the transitional area to different ice-formations. The structures under the surface reveal something about its origin. Remarkable feather-shapes mark the growth of ice-crystals that is typical for flowing water becoming solid.

Ououou, this is beautiful! Yes, those structures stand for very young and thin ice. Don't walk on it! ;o)

It looks like the ice is getting wrinkled from the water underneath. Great image!

Wow, my favorite one so far. The transitional ice creates some really neat structures and I love that footprint. :)

Once again you show your observation of the details of Nature, Jan-Carel. Everything is that way for a reason. The 'feathers' under the water look to me, almost as if they were a shoal if silver fish, or maybe big eels, - but without fins. Regards, John.
