Melting ice
As an engineer I can't help but notice everyday examples of radiation heat transfer and thermodynamics. Here are a couple of leaves (good absorbers of heat from the sun) that melted leaf-shaped holes through the ice (good reflector of heat from the sun) in my yard. Even the stems left their mark. I like how the blue of the ice looks so cold. Lately our weather has been colder than Alaska some days.
