Ice colors


Most things the eyes can see, the camera can capture, at least if you are patient and work with your resources. Color prisms, rainbows, are tricky to capture to the depth that we see them live. One of the nice things about ice is that when the sun shines through it, there are beautiful flecks of color. That can be on the grass or on a tree branch, anywhere there's a light frosting. We've had a lot of that lately and I played around with getting the reflections of light off of snow and various plants and trees. The photo doesn't do justice to the morning beauty but the variety of trees and the layers of branches along with the sun lighting then up is as close as I could get to what I was going for. If you look closely, there are flecks of color, especially along the pine needles. If you haven't lately, take a peek outside at sunrise and enjoy the view.
