                     Amazing striped icebergs -  A MUST-SEE

Icebergs in  Lake Winnipeg (Province of Manitoba, Canada)  sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of snow that react to different conditions. 

Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with melt water and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form. 

When an iceberg falls into the lake, a layer of water can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae, it can form a green stripe. 

Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the lake. 







Frozen Wave Pixs - Nature is amazing! 

The water froze the instant the wave broke through the 
ice.  That's what it is like in  Lake Winnipeg where it is the 
coldest weather in decades.  Water freezes the instant 
it comes in contact with the air.  The temperature of the 
water is already some degrees below freezing.   

Just look at how the wave froze in mid-air!!!

that we never imagined!  Pass it on for others to enjoy
