Majestic Falls Ice Field
It has been cold here for a week, nights plunging to 10F or so and never above freezing. I suspect this location on McDowell Creek never even saw the sun. An amazing sight for sure, the creek totally frozen over with inches of ice. I met a couple from just up the road who commented that in 20 years of visiting Majestic Falls they have never seen it ice over. Likely, once in a lifetime. This image is 27 images stitched together making a single 81mpix image.

Amazing capture. Is that a bird frozen in the middle? I googled to see what it would look like if it was flowing. Is this it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan_photoman/1317465456/
Cool shot of the frozen falls and creek. Have a great weekend.
Amazing how a rush stream and waterfall can freeze over like this.
Amazing. My friend in Japan photographed a frozen water fall there a year ago. That was also quite a stunning sight.
Nice Image, I hear is has been cold on the west coast.
Wow, do you have a toboggan?
Lovely textures, looks pretty cold though. Thanks for sharing:)
Hi Perry,
How did you design that favicon - the small logo - into your blog?
Thanks and Regards

Wow! That's quite the change! Good job stitching it all together.
Wow, Quite a difference in summer and winter!
That photo is amazing! The falls are just gorgeous.
Beautiful shot-I love the looks of the waterfalls frozen -what is that exactly stuck in between the rocks?
