Icicle Missles

West Virginia

These were about 20 feet long, hanging from a rock wall. They would fall in their entirety as they melted. I didn't hang around long because there were more above me as I shot this.

Sorry, will have to comment on other Pads later. Pbase is so moving so slow on my dial up connection, it took 4 minutes for the first thumbnail I clicked on to download.

I hope they get this site straightened out soon.

Olympus C-5050Z
1/1000s f/6.3 at 7.1mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Yikes, it scares the crud out of me to stand under one 1/2 the size of this... Brave girl! and I'm glad you did it.

Wow. Great shot of those sharp icicles.

I like how the vertical ice daggers echo the vertical trees. Very nice!

Fantastic Karen. One of those would feel like a dagger if it dropped on you, I would imagine.

I almost gave up trying to get to post this message - wow, really slow. Glad I stuck around. Love your shot - nice composition and the mood is definitely cold....

amazing shot Karen....it must have been cool to see in real life! I put up my PaD at about the same time as you and the site was definately having trouble. I gave up too.

Great and dangerous shot. I am glad to know someone else is experiencing trouble with PBase today.
