Designer Ice: Branch Brook

For the recently new year, I am trying a new theme which allows a larger view of the main image. What do you thinK?

This is the strange ice that forms along the edges of Branch Brook at Rachel Carson NWR, a mile of river channel from the sea, where the water is, according to the tide, a mix of salt and fresh. I love the long fibers, the arrowheads and the spears. It is so designed! I know there is a chemistry and a physics of water behind it…a whole crystal science…but it certainly does not look random to me. 🙂

Canon SX50HS in Program with –1/3EV exposure compensation. 1200mm equivalent field of view. f6.5 @ 1/1000th @ ISO 100. Processed in Lightroom for intensity, clarity, and sharpness.
