Golden Hour Sea Ice Puzzle Pieces Over Vancouver Hills

by Eugene Griffin

Warm amber light spills across fractured sea ice, turning the frozen surface into a mosaic of interlocking geometric shapes. The ice floes resemble puzzle pieces, their edges sharp and irregular against the deep blue water. Below, terraced hillsides near Strathcona rise in gentle green and brown steps, their orderly lines against the chaotic nature of the ice. The sky above is a flawless, pale gradient, unbroken by clouds. Shadows stretch long and soft across the ice, highlighting the texture of ridges and cracks. The sunlight reflects off the wet surfaces, creating bright highlights that dance along the fissures. A thin layer of snow dusts the highest ridges of the ice, catching the final glow of the day.
