Grace this is amazing. I've not seen a shot like this.

So beautiful and pristine.

Your colors and the way you presented this is really spectacular.

I really love the perspective you gave this.

This is fabulous. I have never seen an "ice castle", nor can I say I truly know what it is. I'm looking at it and since it looks like a hole that is frozen over at the top and I can still see the daylight thru the ice. This makes me wonder how it formed that way and what keeps it from caving in? Regardless of me being overly analytical the shards of ice is magnificent and has an incredible 3D effect. This reminds me of something you would see growing (forming) in a cave like Carlsbad Caverns. The colored lights were perfect for making it feel cold like the cold blue but also gives the icicles contrast and dimension. Fantastic

    Thank you for the six stars! The structures are very thick here. They grow up to 12,000 icicles on racks for about a month and then individually sculpt them into the existing ice formations. The entire process takes around 4000 hours of work! They are embedded with thousands of LED lights and they have ice slides, tunnels and frozen thrones too. Pretty interesting and amazing :)

Lovely use of lighting and good angle capture of the compostion. The background works well as well. Good impact and lovely colour comes through . It is really intriging and memorising Thanks for sharing this on far

That is fabulous and makes me get colder than I already am looking at it. You captured the light and textures wonderfully. I would imagine something like that is hard to photograph correctly and you did it.
