Cold Expressions

A couple of large snow sculptures were found in the Byward Market back in 2016 for Winterlude. This is one of them. 


Another featured a familiar Jedi master of small scale and big reputation.


I photographed the Ice Hogs again in Confederation Park.


Typically on the second weekends of Winterlude, new small ice sculptures are erected around the fountain.

  18. I'm always amazed and delighted to see these talented artists perform live as well, but each of their sculptures truly a work of art that isn't always so easy, depending on the weather!
