Ice Sculpture Abstract, Blackwater Falls State Park, WV
While shooting at Blackwater Falls State Park in Davis, WV this past weekend, I tried not only to get classic landscape and waterfall shots, but also some creative, unique takes on the area. The cold temperatures had caused ice to form on the boulder in front of Blackwater Falls, turning it into a frozen sculpture of tannin stained ice. As the water from the falls crashed onto the ice and the snowflakes drifted down onto the sculpture from above, I thought that something about the textures appealed to me, so I composed this shot and pressed the shutter.
I like it. It’s different. Here I took an often photographed scene and isolated a single, overlooked part of it and made this simple, artistic image. In it, water can be studied in all its forms, as vapor, as snow, as ice, as water.
