Lake Superior Ice Caves 1756

Philip Schwarz' recent blog entry “Winter Photography at the Apostle Islands Ice Caves” has me jonesing to get back there this winter.

In the meantime, I was looking through some of my photos of the ice caves from 2009 and came across this one I hadn't processed. I rather like it now, even though at the time I didn't like it enough to do anything with it. That's the way it goes with me: I see something that inspires me to make a photograph, but then when I'm going through them for initial processing only a few catch my eye as being worth working on further. If I wait a while, though, and go back through them again, I'll find some that I like again and want to spend a little time on.

So, does this grab you? Or should I have left it where it was, in the softly spinning darkness of my hard drive? Please share your thoughts & comments below!
