Winterlude Ice Sculptures

We’re in the middle of the last week of Winterlude here in the nation’s capital, and the weather has been fairly co-operative. Although we did have one melty weekend, things have been hovering about 5-10 degrees below zero.

Of course, the melty weekend did destroy the initial batch of ice sculptures before I could photograph them. This weekend I made a specific effort to catch some photos of the International Ice Carving competition. By going the evening after the afternoon they were judged I felt I would get the best results.



There’s a few shots in here from the day before too when we saw some of these being built.


Here’s a shot from the day before of construction

And here’s the finished product

From another angle



This beautiful one was broken between Saturday and Sunday night.

It was still pretty though!


These last three were from the melty set, but still give enough of an impression of what their majesty was to be worthy of inclusion.

I believe this Canadian astronaut is too heavy to ever get off the ground!
