On Wednesdays all over the internet bloggers post a photo with no words to explain it. The idea is the photo says so much it doesn’t need a description.

Ain’t Nature grand, Elizabeth. A stunning surprise She placed very briefly in the puddles on our road during a big freeze last week.

Thanks, Gilly … these amazing ice formations riding across the top of puddles on the road were here and gone again in less than the time it took to walk the dogs! So thrilled I got the shot on my cell phone.

Beautifully caught, the detailed geometry of it. Also, I know that ice. (I wonder if *ice* has as many varieties as snow?) The kind I like to step on, hear it crinkle as it shatters like the most fragile glass. Feels oddly decadent and slightly Greek. But of course, this is the more artistic approach! Wellies not required. (;

You describe the sound perfectly, Carin. I almost did step on it as the pups (now 50 lbs each) had done to a few frozen puddles earlier on the road. Trying to get them to back up and away from the shot was tricky … not a time to be photo bombed!

Carin, my friend Marlene Creates has made a film and published a book about Newfoundland words for ice and snow (many are for ice). The book is called Brickle, Nish and Nobbly. “Some examples are: ballicattered (covered with a layer of ice from the action of spray or waves), brickle ice (easily broken, brittle ice), clinkerbells (icicles), devil’s blanket (a snowfall that hinders your usual work), Mother Carey is plucking her chickens (snow falling in large fluffy clumps), sish (fine, granulated ice floating on the surface of the sea), and way ice (loose ice that is easy to navigate).” See more at http://www.paulpetro.com/exhibitions/434-A-Newfoundland-Treasury-Of-Terms-For-Ice-And-Snow

That’s exquisite Cheryl, I can imagine you making a beautiful painting of this. I can’t believe you’ve captured this fragile magic.

Thanks, Allison. The puddles on the road were almost dry when we had another freeze. These ice formations were like suspension bridges sitting above the ground and strung across the top edges of the puddles. And, yes … magical!
