Feather and Ice

A single, floating feather caught my eye this morning, and within this picture is...

...a miniature ice forest,

...this prickly ice sculpture, ...

and the feather.

What a marvel!

Ever wonder where they get design ideas from? I think this textured glass idea came from the first freeze of the year on a pond somewhere.

The pools, probably from a morning duck visit, create an Escher quality for me.

Puddle (M.C. Escher).

As I walked around the pond, a bit more carefully this morning, the ice became even more beautiful in the weak sun's shine.

Without the feather, I would never have caught this reflection.
