Every year for 125 years Saranac Lake has built an Ice Palace on the shore of Lake Flower for their winter carnival. The carnival was started as a way to get TB patients out into the frosty fresh air which was, at that time the only cure for TB.
I have gotten into the habit of visiting the Ice Palace each winter and last year I photographed in with my IR camera. My usual habit is to photograph details such as the water weeds that are in the blocks and the patterns made by light coming through the blocks. This year there were fish in two of the blocks, not rapped there, but caught and inserted by the building crew which is all volunteers. The photo above of one of the fish is not IR. I converted it to B&W for a regular digital photo.
The remaining photos below are IR photos that I made on the drive to SL then going to Norman Ridge and on my way home.
