I could not stop myself from taking photo after photo of this half-frozen creek when we were in Boulder in February. I literally have hundreds of photos that I took within a three-hour span. The whole of it was stunning to me. The mountains majestic and full of strength, the ice smooth and thick, and the placement of the trees and stones and plants perfect. I marvel at nature constantly, and here I witnessed it changing yet again as the ice chunks melted into water that was swept along.
I kid you not, there literally were heart-shaped stalactites hanging from one block of ice.
And… we could literally watch the water flowing under the thin parts of the ice. So amazing.
Feel free to peruse my other Boulder photos in this post from last week. I felt blessed to witness this beauty that caught my heart so much. Thanks for reading!
I just love the hearts
Beautiful!
Oh my! Heart-shaped stalactites?!! Sounds like heart hunting gold. The Holy Grail?
Beautiful… have to hop on over via your link to your Boulder photos! Love!

Great photos! It’s really amazing to hear the water flowing under that ice. I’d love to wander up that creek bed and see what is around the bend.

Ah, so refreshing! The sunlight on the ice and water was heaven-sent.
Stunning landscape. Water and ice are an amazing mix.
Stunning photos. Living in sub tropical Australia I do miss things like this variation in weather and nature xx

So beautiful, I love how the water looks like a seam running down the middle of the snow. Got to love nature.
You are so right. Beautiful. Thank you for stopping by!
I love photographing icy water flowing in snowbound creeks. I just looked at the post about your trip, too. You got some wonderful photos. I really liked the variety of small bridges you captured. Visiting from Kat’s Photo-Heart Connection.

Thank you! I can’t help myself really. When I see a bridge over a creek, I feel this pull to capture it. Seems so romantic really, you know?
