This shot keeps capturing my attention. It reminds me of a star nebula! Yvonne

Ok :) Stagnating water doh! Makes it even more special as you rarely see beauty in stagnating water as you do here. Thanks Cat for the explanation. :) jano

Thanks Jano and Rod. I am glad that you both liked this image.
Jano,
This is not ice, actually. It is more like a thick translucent crust, the kind you get when flowing water sits idle for a while and algae and such start growing underneath. The stream part is guessed correctly! -Cat

Very good Cats as this gives me the impression of light rather than reflection.

Hey Cat - lovely image - took me awhile to figure out that this is ice on a stream with a reflection??? Love the colors. The image also needs a date as it isn't showing either in your EXIF. jano
