Ice Storm in Ontario, Canada - April 2017

in #photography7 years ago

This spring my town was hit by a heavy ice storm that brought down branches and power lines, froze doors shut, and generally wrecked havoc... But it was also beautiful and made for some great photos. Here's a few shots that I snapped after the storm stopped!

Yeah that's about right. I've got a pic of half my tree upside down and covered in ice on my lawn from one of the previous ice storms.
