Dee was so impressed with my Icicle shots that I took some better Macro's this morning.

Thought I'd share with you guys sweating in Cali...Florida and Australia! :rofl

Sigma 105 f2.8 Macro....B+W 2x ND to reduce direct sun glare and over exposer.
Shot in FULL manual mode and some tricky balancing on the window ledge!
PP = Slight crop and USM'd the ---- outta them and this is what I got! :thumb (USM @ 200% Radius @ 3.0)

    Hey, that's me....
    Thanks for posting more ice photos. Apparently they are not so easy to capture after all -- and then you turn your back and they melt away!:):
