They are beautiful, however they are not from Lake Huron as the email claims.

These particular photos (more of which can be seen at the link below) were taken at the Antarctic base of Dumont D'Urville by Tony Travouillon in 2002.

In March 2008, the text accompanying these pictures was altered to place the formation in Michigan (due to the recent cold snap there).

No worries, very cool pics, glad they were posted.

Just not as cold at the temperatures necessary to make the ice in the pics in Minn.
