A drop of water that dropped from an icicles splashes onto a 'stalagmite style'
ice formation.
I was very lucky and got this shot on my first try.
The icicle is curved because the bush slowly bent under the weight of the ice.
Its amazing how similar ice formations are to cave formations.
There is a scientific way to explain the ripples forming.
I don't fully understand it, so I won't try to explain it.
The heat from the light had hollowed out the snow leaving a very thin
layer.
