Hello André, what is hidden underneath? A fountain? Although I am glad the cold days are over, I really like this shot.
Best regards, Christine

Hello Christine,
this is a kind of art object and I discover these formations everywhere in the Dolomites. The most beautiful and largest I saw in the Val di Fiemme. On my return trip from Italy to Germany, I also found these formations in Bavaria.
A wooden frame is built for this. Inside, a hose is laid through which water constantly flows out. These giant ice formations here were additionally sprayed from the outside. It reminded me of my childhood. Back then, we crafted such formations in miniature with saltwater.
Best regards
André
