Wonders In The Ice

 More today from the RCAF centennial ice sculpture at Winterlude.


Seen from the side, one sees that it's separate sections.


Off to the side, blocks of ice that were cut off. Shortly after I took these shots, a crew came in to remove the ice blocks, working items, and bike racks, and set up stanchion lines around the sculptures.


This sculpture is one that I'd photographed in progress before Winterlude began, but each time I came, it was wrapped up to insulate it from the sun. By the third weekend, it was still there, and this time, it was open to view. Doctors Without Borders had this one made, and it's called Little Birds, a commemoration of the children who are among over 100 million people around the world fleeing conflict, persecution, disasters, and more.

  10. Must've taken the artist quite a bit of time to do this one.
