Artist’s Note: I discovered this monument along a pressure-ridge on the frozen Big Stone Lake on the northeastern border of South Dakota with Minnesota over the winter of 2002-2003. This is a close-up at the very extreme of the 24-120mm’s focal ability, taken while laying prone on the ice. The “monument” is roughly six inches tall, but there I’ve gone and potentially ruined some of the allure of it for you. To me, it is often the small things that hold the most significance, and as such, this ephemeral monument has come to symbolize many things about myself that I’ve recognized over the years.

Artist’s Note: This image hails from within the first half-year of owning a digital SLR camera, and is also from my first personal experience on the ice. Big Stone Lake is a long, thin lake (which some might think is hardly a glorified river, but I digress), and when it freezes over, it “sings” when pressure causes cracks along its length. This particular crack occurred the night before this was taken, while my brothers-in-law and I were out fishing in their ice shack. First experiences are ever so often the most memorable, no?
