Different people see different things when staring at clouds, inkblots, or latte foam. Now ice skating surfaces can apparently be added to this list of interpretive imagery. When staring at this particular frozen pool of water, some might see a gathering of birds, while others might see smoke, while others might see ghostly apparitions. One thing’s impossible to ignore: This skater is braving what appears to be a very cold winter.

Kudos to the photographer for getting such a great shot. But is it really safe for them to be standing there? This photo has a ‘seconds later they fell through the ice’ feel.
