Wow, this got voted in super fast.

LT is correct. Ice formations made by the rushing water underneath. You can find more photos from this location on my flickr page. I am still editing and uploading them.

This was a ton of fun to shot these ice formations. I've personally never seen anything like it before and am really glad I decided to make the hike down to this spot.

Great shot! I don't think I've every seen quite like this before. The pictures a little blurry, but I still put it as my background.

Very nice! It works well as a desktop with the position of the ice giving it an almost abstract feel.

There seems to be a little bit of blur in the left third or so of the image. I still like this a lot, but I wish that blur wasn't there. Now, I can't imagine how tough a shot like this must have been, but just from the extremely high standards we all try to keep on this site, that is what stands out to me. Still great though, and my new wallpaper.

Thank you everyone!

Trout, you're right and that totally bummed me out when I got to processing this shot. I didn't see that when setting up the shot but it also isn't a deal breaker. If I spent enough time I could probably reduce it's impact but I don't have the time LOL.

Kind of has an abstract feel to it, like ew1029 mentioned. I think it works well as a background. I like it. :)

Beautifully creative, but ......a bit blurry when seen up close.
