Summary: Winter 2014, Mother Nature brough phenomenal ice formations to Lake Michigan's freshwater shore in Leelanau County. Ken Scott's lens records ice as ridges, volcanoes, balls, pancakes, candles, and caves in a color spectrum from white to green to blue through stages of freeze, thaw, recrystallization, and final thaw. An essay by Jerry Dennis interprets this wonder.
