Icicle

I've seen lots of photos of massive icicles on other people's blogs. I haven't had any on the gutters, but this one hanging from my washing line had me confused at first. Then I realised it had formed close to the wall under the outlet for my condensing central heating boiler - and somehow slid down the line!

The snow is gradually clearing away and everywhere is starting to look dirty and gritty. We are all truly sick of it, I think. But while it's still around, I can't decide what to post on my blog - more authentic "now" pictures ...or some cheerful and colourful shots taken in better weather. I think the cold is seeping into my brain and causing a mild paralysis of thought!

  1. Nature confusing us; nice to see the chimney in the shot together with the icicle. I elected a 'warm' shot for my post a little later this morning. The snow came back last night and the joke is now wearing a little thin.

  2. Yes I know the feeling - as it slowly thaws it seems even worse than when the white stuff was around - icicles are lovely things to see close up.

  4. Very nice shot. The icicle and the chimney are polar opposites - one is up and one is down.

  5. That's amazing! I'm a bit jealous of your proper cold. Grey slush does not get me wanting to go out with my camera!
