Western Fool’s Gold

What caught my eye: Multiple layers of material made interesting patterns and textures. These layers caught the sunlight, creating a sparkle that was impossible to ignore.

This is of course just Photoshop color-altered ice, water being like gold here in the west. The hexagonal crystal structure of ice is clearly visible and unusually large in this example.
