Free-form Ice Sculpture

Almost every year (weather permitting) a family not too far from our house creates a free-form ice sculpture in their front yard. To begin, they position their garden hose so that a fine spray hits a small metal frame. It's interesting to watch the sculpture shape change each day. We think they had the water running continuously for two to three weeks this year. The sculpture is about 20 feet tall and probably about 12 feet across. There is a light inside that creates the eerie effect. The pictures are from two different angles.
