A Camera Lens Made of Ice

An interesting experiment with some nice results, Matthew Wheeler has created photos shot through a lens made of ice. It’s obviously not the sharpest or fastest lens, but the results are actually worth a look especially considering the lens was probably melting while he was taking some of these shots.

From Wheeler’s site:

“Matthew Wheeler took his first picture through an ice lens in response to a challenge by Scientific American and CBC calling on listeners to light a fire with a lens made entirely of ice. Too easy by far - Matthew took it one step farther and started photographing the natural beauty of his surroundings through the ice lenses he made.”
