Frozen wave and other amazing ice formations


With all the bitter cold winter is handing out this year, it's easy to forget just how beautiful our coldest season can be. Among winter's most striking features is ice -- forming beautiful, solid sculptures only to disappear with the first sign of sun.

Case in point, this "Slurpee Surf" spotted by photographer Jonathan Nimerfroh in Nantucket, Mass. The semi-frozen waves turned into ice-filled slush, making for some amazing pictures. You can see more of Nimerfroh's photos on his website.

Here we've rounded up some of the best and strangest ice formations from across the interwebs.
