You know, the record-setting
winter of 2015 has left us with all kinds of amazing pictures, most of them of
snow and ice. Well, this is extremely too cold that the
sea on the coast of Nantucket, an island on the eastern coast of the United
States., has turned into slush! Jonathan Nimerfroh, a photographer and surfer
who’s “obsessed” with the ocean, captured these stunning photographs of slushy
waves rolling in to the near-frozen beach.
The
talented photographer Nimerfroh, the high temperature that day had been only
19F, or -7C. It was extremely cold enough for ice to form nearby the shore, but
not cold enough to form solid pieces of ice, which is why the waves had to
travel through a layer of slush to reach the shore. It may just like an
appetizing slurpee, but I don’t recommend trying it unless you like salt, pee
and plankton flavor. This may be also due to thunder sleet that fell near shore
and the sea water was so cold it couldn't melt fast enough and built up along
the shoreline and surf zone or maybe there were a lot of slurpy machines that
washed away. Nimerfroh is an avid ocean and surfing photographer who has plenty
of other gorgeous photographs of the sea, so check out his Website,
