Jonathan Nimerfroh captures nearly frozen waves on camera

Wave4 - Frozen lakes on Nantucket Jonathan Nimerfroh
The record-setting North American winter of 2015 has left us with all kinds of remarkable images, most of them of snow and ice.But a photographer on Nantucket found something most of us have never seen – nearly frozen waves.



Jonathan Nimerfroh was walking along a beach on the island recently when he saw these waves rolling in like slush.

The waves were semi-frozen because there was so much ice inside them.



He took several pictures and shared them with WBZ-TV chief meteorologist Eric Fisher.

'It looks like a big Slurpee rolling ashore,' Fisher said.
