- fantastic pattern! - Franck Vervial
Abraham Lake Winterscape
Here's another from my recent travels up to Alberta, Canada. The patterns in the ice were fantastic as usual. Thanks for all the thoughtful critiques on my previous post. As usual, your comments and critiques are greatly appreciated! Thanks for looking. Chip

I love this location and your shots of it Chip. The first time I saw an image from here was one of your closer crops and I just thought it was an isolated part of the lake. Then I saw that it covered this large of an area and I almost died. :) So freaking cool. Do you know why the lake freezes like that?

Chip Phillips (27 months ago | reply)
Thanks guys!
Aaron-The lake is pretty shallow, and there is a lot of freezing, thawing, and re-freezing. I think the huge slabs of ice buckle from all that to cause the cracking. Some years, there are huge cracks about 2 or 3 feet high.

Another beauty from you and very "Chip Phillips," meaning if I saw this posted anonymously, It has your trademark vision and execution all over it-which is great. Congrats on another excellent Abraham image-very well done!

That's stunning! Must have been a beautiful environment to shoot in? Love the colours. cheers
david.richter (27 months ago | reply)
Flippin sweet hardly expresses even remotely the words of praise this shot deserves, Chip, so take it for what it's worth. Superb leading lines to pull you in and how the clouds line up to mirror that extremely interesting foreground is just pure bliss!

Amazing shot! You couldn't have rigged this any better if you'd put in a special order.
Robstorm Photography (27 months ago | reply)
This is just incredible. I think the cracks in the ice leading the eye up to the mountains are just stunning..The sort of shot I would like to take...Well done....
Michael Carl (27 months ago | reply)
The geometry in those cracks are pure magic... you can spend minutes staring into it for patterns.
mlbrookmire (27 months ago | reply)
Very nice ice...those lines, along with the clouds, sure bring your eye right to the mountains. Nice job.
