Nice pix, but this post would be 10x better if it didn't read like a fratboy email forward.

Nice. I've been in a similar ice-dagger field to the one shown in the "Water and Ice" link, only in Cerro el Plomo, not Ojos del Salado, also in Chile. They're much, much more impressive than you can tell by the pic.

Some very cool stuff here, although it's marred by a few 'shopped pictures and composites (iceberg at bottom right) not identified as such.

I liked the lightning videos. Lightning hitting the tower in Toronto, and then the strike that happened right in front of the guy w/camera.

The 'rare ice star' is actually a sculpture by Andy Goldsworthy, who is worth a MeFi post of his own.
