The War of the Worlds

When we have some prolonged cold weather and the temperature dips below zero at night I like to photograph frozen waterfalls. The ice formations in my photos remind me of the Martian fighting-machines used in H.G. Wells’ 1898 classic science fiction novel The War of the Worlds. They are also known as tripods and are the main war machines used by the Martians in their attempt to conquer Earth. They are fast moving three legged walkers that have whip-like tentacles used for grasping. Click on any one of the polaroid images to see a larger version. Comments are always welcome.
