This is a prominent falls right on the road in Hector NY just north of Watkins Glen. The cold weather really created nice ice formations. Image was made 1/12/18. Yesterday it was warm enough that almost no ice could be found on the falls. 5D4 with 16-35 F4 @ F8, ISO 200 hand held. Thanks for looking and offering advice.

I love how winter can turn such a water flow into an ice sculpture!

Wow, that is seriously frozen. A great documentary image. Compositionally, cropping it to the bottom of your signature works better to my eyes

Really nice!
I am quite surprised that the ice has vanished in the span of a couple of weeks....up here it looks like that in Nov and stays that way until April...lol
Perhaps we need to send you another batch of cold weather....

3 days of 40-50 F weather followed tonight by 15 and tomorrow 8 F. A steady diet of your cold weather would be better for me. However, it can warm up and stay warm by mid March as far as I am concerned.
