Under thin ice ~ Reflection Hunters #168 [En-Pt]

in Shadow Hunters9 months ago

Below zero...

Today I'd like to share with this community a small set of photos I took during my vacation last December. I went to a place that is 1300 meters above sea level. It was early in the morning. I had the chance to see the sunrise... And with it, all the colors of my surroundings began to emerge. What had previously been just shapes and greys began to take on color and depth. As I discovered the cliffs that surrounded me, I came across some large, dark rocks that had small hollows, about three meters in diameter and just over a meter deep, which held water that had been accumulating... The temperature had barely risen above zero degrees centigrade, and the surface of the water had frozen, forming a mirror and a kind of seal of everything underneath the thin layer of ice. Impressively, a worm, which was alive, moved slowly as the first beams of light fell on the icy water in which it lay...

Nature will never cease to amaze me. And this little spectacle is a case in point! A small world under our gaze. Here are the photos of the small world and the larger one that encompasses it!


Abaixo de zero...

Hoje quero aqui partilhar nesta comunidade um pequeno conjunto de fotografias que fiz aquando das minhas férias no passado Dezembro. Desloquei-me até a uma localidade que fica a 1300 metros de altura. Era manhã, bem cedo. Tiver oportunidade de ver o nascer do sol... E com ele as cores todas do que me rodeava, começaram a surgir. O que antes eram apenas formas e cinzentos, começaram a ganhar cor, e profundidade. Ao descobrir os penedos que me rodeavam, deparei um umas rochas grandes e escuras, que tinham umas pequenas concavidades, com cerca de três palmos de diâmetro, e pouco mais de um palmo de profundidade, que tinham água que foram acumulando... A temperatura pouco subia dos zero graus centígrados, e a superfície da água tinha gelado, formando um espelho e como que um selo de tudo o que de baixo da fina camada de gelo se encontrava. Impressionantemente, uma minhoca, que estava viva, movia-se lentamente à medida que os primeiros feixes de luz incidiam sobre a água gélida em que ela se encontrava...

*A natureza nunca deixará de me surpreender. E este pequeno espetáculo é de isso exemplo! Um pequeno mundo debaixo do nosso olhar. Deixo-vos aqui as fotografias do mundo pequeno e do maior que o engloba! *

Your pictures are stunning ❤️! Welcome to the contest, @xrayman 🤗!

Thank you so much for your kind welcome to your contest! BTW, I'm sorry for not introduce myself to you, and to not refer your name in my post... SHAME ON ME! LOL

great that you visited this place during your vacation. It's true, nature never ceases to surprise.
Beautiful reflection photographs @xrayman

Thank you so much for your appreciation... Since I live in a more or less urban area, it's indeed a little bit more difficult to spot those nature's "miracles" on our daily lives... But it is possible. Sometimes, I try to get a little bit out of the daily routines, (paths, places, etc), so my mind can spot easily the "new" bright and marvelous things!

Beautiful pics... Incredible worm moving under the ice.
Have a great weekend

Hello, Heroldius! Thank you so much for passing by! I had a video on that worm moving under the thin layer of ice. In the beginning I thought that it was frozen!

Have a great week, my friend
