These pictures are real but they are NOT of frozen waves. The urban myth is debunked here: http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/antarcticwave.asp Additional information: The photographs were taken by scientist Tony Travouillon in Antarctica. Many of the images can be seen in a gallery on Travouillon's website. The pictures do not show a giant wave somehow snap-frozen in the very act of breaking. The formation contains blue ice, and this is compelling evidence that it was not created instantly from a wave of water. Blue ice is created as the ice is compressed and trapped air bubbles are squeezed out. The ice looks blue because, when light passes through thick ice, blue light is transmitted back out but red light is absorbed. Amazingly beautiful, yes. Frozen waves? No. But u gotta love all the guilible people who'd believe anything =D Can I sell you some pyramid schemes? Sorry. These pictures are real but they are NOT of frozen waves.

These pictures where taken about 50 miles south from my home town. They are actually Lake Ice chunks from the Straights of Mackinaw near Mackinaw City, where the very thick Ice has cracked, and very large, sometimes 200(L)x50(W)x30(D) yard, chunks rise out of the water from extreme pressures from the current and high winds. Because of the ways they crack and the pressure, they sometimes take the shapes of waves. Actually these are not Glaciers, nor are they “Frozen Waves”.

Nevertheless, these pictures capture fantastic imagery that stretch the imagination.
