Blue Ice
Blue Ice
Waterfall behind a blue Ice Curtain
It's just a low slope over which the small stream falls before it flows into the reservoir. I was standing on relatively thick ice when I took these photos. The reservoir right behind me had an ice cover too, but I doubted that the ice could carry me, so I stayed close to the shore (see last photo).
The little waterfall itself is usually not impressive, but covered by the ice it looked cool and the closer I zoomed the more I liked what I saw - a little leaf, frozen in clear ice, and there was the one needle of a pine tree which looked somehow like a white feather.
The blue tone of the ice looked great - I didn't even need Photoshop to colorize the ice ;)
While the ice on the reservoir behind me had a more sunrise-like orangish tone, as you can see in the last photo, this ice curtain over the waterfall was nicely cool blue.
The ice on the reservoir behind me was a little bit to thin for me to walk on it, but the early morning sun painted it in a nice warm orange tone, what made an interesting contrast to the cool blue ice in front of me.
Another busy week is over and I hope the weather turns out nice enough to convince me to go out and take a photo or two :)

What a beauty @johannpiber 🤗✨
At one point for the first photo I thought the oil was on canvas 🤭
I love that blue color ... It's my favorite when I paint castles ... I only see them in that color🥰
Have a nice day and more time for rest and photography🥰❄️✨
Thank you so much @Suzana72, your nice words make me happy, as well as that the colour matches your favourite painting colour for castles 😁

These photos turned out beautifully with the blue ice Hannes.
In 2nd & 3rd phot, neat shot of the tiny leaf caught in the waterfall.
Have a wonderful weekend dear Hannes and hopefully nice weather for going on hikes for more photos.☀️🤗
I think I will have a look there again tomorrow to see how it looks like now 😃
Today is overcast and just lazy, to be honest 😉

.Frozen in time, don't linger too long or you may find yourself alongside the leaf and the pine needle!
That is such a cool blue, shades contrasting off of each other, something that does not appeal to you in summer now turned your eye toward it in the winter months, nature always has surprises.
Warmth of the sun across the water reflects the warm glow one would enjoy after being up close and personal in the frozen flow.
Now I have cooled off once again just seeing this Johann, sizzling hot scorcher here today with UV rays hitting 12/10 go figure! Although 30 deg C factoring in humidity it feels like 36 deg C. No reprieve at night either only going down to 25 deg C.
!BEER time and later a !WINE serenading the night in with no electricity after 8 pm, yes we back to loadshedding under lockdown once again...
Glad you survived your busy week and have a wonderful weekend.
I just commented on Zac @papilloncharity's post that we are in the middle of the winter and I can't imagine such hot temperatures 😉
Our lockdown ends partly on Monday, shops and schools open again, let's see how long till the next lockdown...
I'm glad my photos could cool you Joan, and I thank you very much for your kind compliments.
I wish you a wonderful and hopefully not too hot weekend 😊

North-East of South Africa was hit with Cyclone Eloise, lots of rain then the sun comes out we definitely feel it. Cape where Zac is they have had rain coming through quite regularly, also sudden heat that knocks ones socks off.
Enjoy you little added freedom and have a wonderful weekend.

Your weather down there is certainly much harder than ours, because apart from a bit colder winters it is not to cold nor too hot most times.
As said, we'll see how long the 'freedom' will last this time. Last time it didn't even begin.

.And I only saw this magical post now Hannes.
One thing that I am addicted to is the blue colors that the cold takes on.
No one can paint an exact deep, or light blue color like that and even a camera cannot do it full justice.
It was designed by the Master to give immense pleasure to the human eye.
You have a wonderful set of photos here and that orange color is a beautiful contrast.
Blessings!
Thank you so much for this very nice comment, my friend, I really appreciate the kind words you have found 😊
I like the color blue very much, just as orange, and if I can have both together - even better 😁

.The ice is very wonderful with the blue color. The little leaf that is frozen on the clear ice is amazing. You had good eyes. If you didn't tell us, I may not notice it. In the meantime, I'm sorry, but I haven't seen the pine tree at all... Haha! 😄
The reflection of the sunlight on the ice on the reservoir is really gorgeous and looks warm, as you said, I absolutely agree.
Great capture!
Take care and stay warm! 👱♀️
It's always amazing when you zoom an image to full size and find cool little details which you wouldn't notice otherwise 😀
I saw the pine tree needle when I took the photos, but I have seen the little leaf only at home on the big monitor 😂
Thank you so much kindly for the nice words you have found for my photos, @tangmo 🤗
You take care too and stay healthy, have a great week 🌞
