Ice World

On January 17, 2009, after very cold temps the night before, I joined the many photographers huddle together taking pictures of Looking Glass Falls in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina. I’ve never seen these falls so icy!! To make the picture more dramatic, I layered another close-up image of ice and blended onto the rock face using PhotoShop.

ICE WORLD WAS FEATURED IN THE WATERFALL PHOTOGRAPHY, SEASONAL SCAPES AND ALL OF NORTH CAROLINA GROUPS IN FEBRUARY, 2009!!! THANK YOU MODERATORS AND FRIENDS!!!
