Trees rise up in the foreground, while low hills settle in the distance. The sky, which can be seen through a maze of branches and trunks, is a dark purplish blue, except for a few low, golden clouds.

Sky and clouds near sunset through mostly bare branches. In the woods, Norwich VT, January 2026.

Thank you!🙏

Great stuff, Jaycee! Gotta get back to Maine sometime soon. And I’ve still never visited Acadia! Gotta move it up on the list.

We were there and Jan Mayen for a little over a week, then did a few days on the Greenland coast and a couple more in Iceland. It was all incredible, would love to go during polar night someday!

Forgot to mention that this mirage is closely related to iceblink from last week.

Floating sea ice in the foreground, with low clouds overhead. A bright, winding gap in the clouds is reminiscent of a serpent and reflects off the water below. The sun barely peeks through the clouds.

Floating in the sea ice north of Svalbard, July 2025. Overheard a serpentine gap in the clouds (with the sun as its head?) reflects off the ice and water below.

Floating sea ice in the foreground, with low clouds overhead. Near the horizon is bright white light known an iceblink, due to reflection off an ice field just below the horizon.

Floating in the sea ice north of Svalbard, July 2025. The white light near the horizon is known as iceblink, due to light reflecting off an ice field immediately beyond sight.

Floating sea ice in the foreground, with low clouds overhead. Near the horizon are vertical striations knows as a Fata Morgana (or Morgan the Fairy, from Italian), due to reflection off land just beyond the horizon. This is a kind of mirage in which stacked, flipped and distorted versions of a real image appear to a distant observer. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fata_Morgana_(mirage) for more fun!

More Arctic fun: floating in the sea ice north of Svalbard, July 2025. The vertical striations at the horizon are called a Fata Morgana, due to light reflecting off land just beyond sight.

Beautiful, thanks for posting.

Beautiful!

Cool (oops, accidental pun) shot! Glaciers are amazing.

Close-up view of a jagged, bright blue, striated iceberg floating in a fjord. There is dark blue water in the foreground, while overhead striped clouds echo the iceberg's ridges.

In further honor of #Cold, here's a beautifully jagged #iceberg floating the the fjord off Monacobreen #glacier, Svalbard, July 2025. Enjoy!

A group of trees, branches mostly bare, stand close together on a field of snow. In the background, dark clouds hang above distant hills.

Trees huddled together for warmth? It's certainly #Cold here!

Thanks so much for the many likes and reposts, it’s always appreciated!

Wow, both shots are awesome. This one really let you focus on the pattern of the branches.

Very impressive lathe work!

Great picture, as always! I’m a particular fan of any photo with a single malt in it.

Amazing!

Beautiful!

Thanks so much!

Thank you!

Thx!!

Thanks, and yeah , it does for me!

In the foreground a leaf-covered path winds through the snow before disappearing between tall snow-covered trees. The trees stand on a hill sloping gently from left to right.

Am I stil on the trail? A faint, winding path through the snow leads off between tall, snow-crusted trees on a hillside; Norwich, VT.
