"All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt."— Susan Sontag

"To the artist, a glistening jagged jewel.
A must for the waiting canvas.
Sculpted, tapered, then dropped to Earth
By gods from unknown places." ~~ excerpt from 'Icicles' by Linda Cann Pearson
Oooh, love those clear icicles against that blue sky. Great picture! Love it and the quote is perfect!
