Frozen Images

It would never have occurred to me if I hadn’t joined a photo club in Australia and entered a themed photo competition every two months. “ICE” was once the theme. It was summer in Australia and, living in Thailand, I hadn’t experienced a winter in decades. The only ice I had access to was in my freezer. So, I started experimenting with that. Place photos in a container of water and freeze. Hold that block of ice up to the light and take pictures of it. That’s how I got my ‘Frozen windows’ photos. Or freeze photos in a container of water and place the same vegetables on top as those in the photos and then freeze them again. I took photographs of that. Under the headings ‘Frozen windows’ and ‘Frozen vegetables’ you will find more details of the technique used and of course the end results.
