Mother Nature is truly a wonderful artist. The pattern reminds me of peacock feathers. Nice shot.

I agree with the first poster, in fact I thought, when I saw it on my Google page that it was frozen peacock feathers.

One of my favorite shots lately. The advent of multiple pane windows has made these once common patterns very rare. I miss them. This one is spectacular!
