See ice lighthouse masterpiece

The 'impromptu' minutes of a natural mother sometimes create unexpected masterpieces. Join National Geographic magazine to see the impressive beauty of lighthouses when completely covered in ice.

Looking at the picture, maybe you think this is a nicely decorated cream cake? An ice sculpture? It is revealed that this is a lighthouse located at the gateway to Cleveland's port in Ohio, USA. And what is special is that it has been completely covered in ice, creating a unique 'work of art'.

Steam dust and cold temperatures turned this West Pierhead lighthouse (about 20m high) into a beautiful giant ice cream stick. However, this work of art also makes coastal security officers worried because boats (if traveling in the area at this time of extreme weather) will be difficult to locate the land. (although there have been announcements to stop waterway activities during this time); And the tape will not melt within the next few months.

This is a 'naked' image of the lighthouse. It looks very normal like many other lighthouses. However, in the winter, it put on a pretty splendid shirt that brings magical colors like a magnificent castle in fairy tales.

Seagulls gather in the West Pierhead lighthouse area early one morning. Currently, the local authorities still have no plans to 'heat up' this lighthouse; so it is likely that it will still wear this gorgeous shirt until next March.
