What a unique and intriguing subject and composition. Congratulations on such a stand-out.

That's just how I feel about the phenomenon: unique and intriguing. I'm glad that some of these plants grow at the edge of the woods just half a mile from home, so when that first cold overnight hits us each fall, off I go the next morning to take pictures of the resulting ice curls.

Artist's Description

By the time of the first good overnight frost (i.e. freeze), almost all frostweed plants, Verbesina virginica, have gone to seed. Although each stalk stands there dried out and unappealing, the freeze can cause it to draw underground water up into its base. When that happens, the lower part of the stalk splits open and extrudes freezing water laterally, producing thin sheets of ice that curl out around the broken stalk. Here you see a pair of frostweed stalks, each with ice sheets scrolling in two directions.

I've been involved with photography since the late 1960s, when I got my first real camera toward the end of my two years in Honduras as a Peace Corps math teacher. From the 1970s through the mid-1980s I went through a phase of black and white infrared photography, often even in 3-D. My current period began in 1999. Call me a nature photographer and you won't be wrong, but because there's not a lot of majestic scenery where I live (which is Austin, Texas), I've gotten interested in portraying the native plants of the region, especially our many wildflowers. Along with them come occasional butterflies, birds, and other small creatures. I often think of all these subjects, even the plants, as if they were posing for portraits, so you could...
