Great ice images Alan. I especially like the Shepperd's Dell.This is one topic I'm glad I don't have a lot of images for since I moved up to the Pacific NW so I could escape Utah winters. We do get some episodes of cold weather but happily nothing like Trent's examples. I have experienced temperatures in the -20 to -30 range as an undergraduate at Utah State University in the early 70's and decided I didn't want to live in a place that cold.

If you can get up there the Columbia River Gorge can be quite photogenic with ice. The Gorge is notorious for ice storms during the winter months.

Rick, I love these exquisite abstract ice images—very, very nice! Love the colors captured too. Thank you for sharing. I imagine that was quite a camera “setup” required for these. I especially favor the middle image of the three—thanks again.
Trent, living here in Tennessee, I’m unfamiliar with the term “ice face”—but my wife from Iowa has experienced this too! I like the soap/corn syrup bubble too. I also like the ice branch formations. My favorite is the Saskatoon river valley landscape—perfect!My environment is covered in snow and ice almost half of the year so I have lots of ice images. Here are a few.

The river valley in Saskatoon is covered in frost when the atmospheric conditions are just right.

The rising and lowering of the river along with wind often gives beautiful ice formations on branches hanging close to the water.

If you just don't breathe when outside when it is -30 or -40 you don't have to worry about 'ice face'

Alan, capturing the falls in winter certainly adds to the landscape’s beauty—ice is nice!This is one topic I'm glad I don't have a lot of images for since I moved up to the Pacific NW so I could escape Utah winters.

I love all three, but my favorite perhaps is the Shepperd’s Dell—perfect! And thank you for sharing!
Tim, this is a well composed and beautiful B&W—which works well with a winter snow landscape. Nice light. Thank you so much for sharing.
Dan, beautiful winter landscapes! I especially favor the first, third, fourth, and fifth images—so many beautiful images to see—and happy you shared! I really love the fifth B&W image—perfect!
