Close-up of an ice sculpture and sea wave
A unique ice formation is captured in a close-up, located right at the water's edge on the Užava coast. The ice sculpture is massive and covered with a porous layer of snow, while fine icicles reaching toward the water are visible on its underside. Through the transparent and clean water around the base of the ice, seabed stones and sand are clearly visible.
Behind the ice formation, a small, foaming sea wave is seen slowly rolling towards the shore. The wave adds dynamics to the image, contrasting with the still and heavy ice form. The water color changes from light brownish in the shallows to deep blue further out at sea, reflecting the sky's light and the surrounding environment.
The natural light emphasizes the crystalline structure of the ice and the fluffy surface of the snow. The image focuses on the details and textures created by the process of water freezing in changing weather conditions. It is a vivid example of how northern natural elements interact to create ephemeral but artistic natural objects.
