Iceboat on Frozen Lake with Falling Snow in Sapporo in at a harbor quay near Sapporo

Iceboat on Frozen Lake with Falling Snow in Sapporo

by Catherine Berry

Soft, diffused midday light falls through a steady fall of snowflakes over the slick, gray ice of a frozen lake. A wooden iceboat with long, polished runner blades rests on the surface, its hull showing signs of weathered use beside dark, wet timber. The view comes from over the shoulder of a person in a heavy, oil-stained winter coat, framing the vessel against the harbor quay near Sapporo. Weathered pilings line the edge of the quay, while snow accumulates on every horizontal surface along the muted shoreline. Meltwater beads on the edge of the boat's rail, reflecting the overcast sky above. The runner blades press into the ice, leaving a faint track that disappears under the falling white flakes.
