Icicles
While out and about in the Peak District we came across this
rock face covered in icicles where the water flowing off the hill had
frozen. With the temperatures rising the
ice had started to melt and the rock face was covered in water drops, some running down the icicles before dropping to the ground.
We set about capturing the scene before the temperature melted the ice, being careful note to get the cameras too wet from the falling water, which was like rain under the rock but also being careful to be hit by icicles that were falling off as the ice melted.
This shot was caught at the perfect time as the water drop formed on the tip of the icicle before falling to the ground. I used a Nikon SB600 flash gun on wireless remote to light the back of the ice.
