Nature can be chaotic. Much is not repeatable and that's the case with ice and the abstract art it suggests. This natural sculpture will likely never be repeated in exactly the same shape. And the prisms are a big bonus.
I've mentioned before that I am not fond of cold weather which is odd since I have chosen to continue living in a cold climate for the winter months. Opportunities like this are the reason why. Well, habit and connections figure into it also.
While I am not overly concerned with making the same images as others or having others make a similar image to one of mine (that happened yesterday on Facebook when a local photographer made essentially the identical image to my Walnut Grove shot but with some snow rather than fog in the air) one of the features I like about making ice abstracts is that they are very much like snowflakes, no two are exactly alike. And often the shapes they take are very appealing and can suggest something other than ice. Despite cold's discomfort, if you want the image you have to be there.
