Ice formations made by wind, water and cold on the shores of the Ottawa River (2012). Many of these images were posted previously (in colour) here.

To mark World Water Day, a few images showing how #WaterisArt.

I love the fluidity of these liminal spaces between winter and spring. The ice folding back from the shoreline exposing inky cold water, translucence and grit.  There is much beauty in the rituals of the seasons.
