  1. Every one of these is unbelievable. Such incredible beauty just beneath the surface of the pond. A hidden world of wonders. The colors appeal to me as much as the details and fantastic shapes. Such warmth in such a frozen microcosm. I love this whole series! :-)

  2. It is yet another wonder of the nature amazingly captured by you.
    Wonder, because we still do know so little of nature’s mechanism.

    —– another wonder to me is, the same muddy bottomed pond
    has such clear pebbled bottom as well. => Does the pond got
    fresh water inlet or water spring ?

    • So many wonderful things in this lovely pond. I’m completely perplexed by how this little mini snow-globe formed itself. I can’t wrap my head around how it could be possible.

      This pond is actually the size of a lake. In Maine, they refer to refer to it as a pond because of its shallow depth (compared to a lake). And this pond does have a spring flowing into (somewhere… I’m not sure where, though). This explains many of the bubbles beneath its surface, and yes, the clear pebbled bottom , but not this miniature snow globe on top!

  3. It’s like a wonderful display cabinet – as always with your shots, you make me think about things I wouldn’t normally notice. I really want to know what those little red bits are.
