Ice Patterns, Seward, Alaska.
These ice patterns were on the side window of my pickup yesterday. With the heat off, I carefully drove into position so that the sunset would back-light the patterns. Nature can sure create some wonderful designs!

This is really sweet Ron. Good idea on repositioning the truck.
Fantastic – love the patterns and the light.
Very nice, it’s amazing what nature can do
Neat effect. Did you do anything to make it look so grainy?
Very cool! I haven’t seen any ice like that on my windows here in Jackson Hole, but that would definitely be worth driving with the heat off to get into a good position.
Very nice. Love the details. I don’t see frost like that much anymore. Seemed like I saw it all the time as a kid! Must be the newer windows and such!
Awesome Ron. I’ve never seen anything like it and would never have known what it was.
Thanks everyone!
@ Scott No, the grainy look was just from the thick ice.
@ Dan Yeah I wonder if the windows have something to do with it. We have had some good ice lately thanks to the transition to warm wet weather to cold.

Beautiful picture. I really enjoy your photography. An exploded frozen can of 7Up makes pretty pictures on car windows too!
Ron,
That’s beautiful. I’d like show you one of my own. The photo is of frost on the window at my house. I think it looks like a spruce forest. I’m not sure how to add it here so I’ll provide the link. See it in the “interesting” album on my website: http://www.ThompsonTravelinfo.com

Wow Ron, I love this photograph. The designs are beautiful.
Happy New Year!
Thanks Todd!
Thanks Carol – sounds like you speak from experience.
Happy New Year!

Wow! I remember Jack Frost’s paintings on the wondows at home in New York when I was a kid, but don’t see them any more on home or vehicles either. Thanks for the memory!
Thanks Joni!
This is awesome Ron. Brings me back to my childhood strangely enough. As a really young kid (kindergarten age) I used to play with the ice that would form on the windows of our mobile home in Anchorage. As to your photo great lighting and amazing intimate nature photo…. truck window or not. Really cool!
Thanks Jim!
Our mobile home out in Copper Center received way too much ice on the windows to even have patterns! Thanks,
Ron
awesome Ron. this is so nice, you’re really successful. Congrats Ron.
