Japanese crossword «Through ice»

??? what is it ???

Was wondering that too

Well... it for those who looked at the sun through small pieces of ice. Probably, it is necessary to apologize to others.

This is Children's spring fun: look at the sun through the ice. In the spring on a snow surface very thin wide and flat ice are formed. It is in itself very beautiful. With the sun even better

No, don't apologise. I've never tried looking at the sun through ice but I will do the very next time the pond freezes over!

I wish I had seen the sun through a piece of ice when I was a child. Thank you, Vigil

thank you for your reply, I did not have the opportunity to see that because in the south of France, frozen lakes are rather rare..

I'll try. We don't have snow, I'll try with a flat piece of ice from my freezer. thanks for make a difference

A couple of winters ago it got cold enough to do this at my husband's parents' farm, one hour's drive from Melbourne, Australia. It was so beautiful!

Fascinating. Thank you for the explanations, Vigil!

interesting - I see the hand now. We don't usually get that form of ice here, so I have never done that. Thanks for the inspiration.

Oooh, Vigil, I see it. Super creative.
This was a challenge with similar pale colors and lots of single squares and white spaces. It took a lot of counting and careful attention.

Sorry, I really can't see it.

Amazing! The author's explanation enabled me to see it clearly. Thank you.

thanks for the explanation, I live in southern California, lol, nice design, thanks

Thank you Vigil for explaining -- it's really cool once you know what you're looking at! And it was a tough puzzle, but fun to do.
