@Denise: Thanks Denise.....I had wondered if it would make tv or not....guess not....had to be there in person. He leaves for boot camp in July... if he doesn't change his mind and go to college to be an officer first.

@PD: Thank you !!! I was actually trying for a landscape capture but really needed and nd filter and didn't have it with. And just happened to see the icicles on my husbands trailer and then thought the color might look neat behind the icicles...this is the result. Thus my new favorite quote...In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.~~~John Muir

I like your icicle shot better than my icicle shot. The lighting from behind and dof really makes the icicles stand out. Very well done!
