Edward Aites submitted this video to NPR’s Science Friday and I’m glad he did. Aites, a photographer and videographer specializing in time-lapse imagery, said he was looking for something to explore in his studio during the winter months and started playing around with ice.

His play turned into art and I think what he crated and captured is beautiful and fascinating.
