“Frozen Cold Beauty” is part of my series “World of Ice”

As I was wondering the edge of a frozen pond looking for interesting textures and ice art, this beautiful scene unfolded. The sky was blue, the sun was out, and the golden hues of this plant just stood out with such a warm welcoming vibe. Abstract, wild, and inherently a work of art.
