Brrr! Can you feel that chill down your spine? And on the tip of your nose? And everywhere else? Yeah, winter’s here, bringing with it rain and ice and snow, covering the land in shades of white. Lakes and rivers freeze over. Trees lose their leaves and don a frosty, white foliage. Everything seems to be slower and quieter. Winter can also be a sculptor, manipulating the water in the air into spectacular shapes: |
A Frost-cloud, raining frost on the sea |
A frozen trash can |
When Animal (the muppet) was left out at night |
Icicles on Avebury Drive |
A frozen statue that doesn't seem to like his perdicament |
A frozen, sunken ship |
A frozen stop sign, in Russia |
A popped water balloon |
This used to be a waterfall |
A penny icicle |
The lighthouse on lake Michigan, U.S.A. |
A frozen lake becomes a playground for dogs |
Even flash floods aren't safe |
A frozen lake filled with frozen bubbles |
Trees hold frost like it was shopping bags |
When ice giants cry |
Even your toilet can freeze! |
Old trucks become amazing ice sculptures |
A brave rider, traversing a frozen sea |
The Chicago river in the dead of winter |
