Oh my, those are spectacular. Must have been challenging to get all of that detail.


I like the effect the lights have - adds a twinkling feeling.

I wonder if our ice sculptures are still on display - the festival happened the week it was -30C!

Man, I hate the cold weather, but this stuff is really beautiful. You did a great job capturing them. I like this one the best:

Tim Kirkwood

These are wonderful. I have seen these done on tv. It is really cool to watch them being carved.

Thanks folks.

I wasn't there when they were carving. The bad news is, 36 degrees today,
40 tomorrow. It's a shame all that hard work for only a couple day showing.

This coming from a person in Kentucky seems to strike me as quite funny

Just not used to all that snow
One or two inches here and you will see people freeking out

Also you must realize that I work for a airport and when it snows I am at work till everything is up and running again.
Sometimes I don't go home for a week or more.
But I know it does sond funny coming from a Kentuckian:D

see you
Fred
