Photographer Richard Johnson Captures the Beauty of Canada’s Ice-Hut Communities
In the heart of winter, the northern United States and Canada undergo a magical transformation as temperatures plummet and bodies of water freeze over.
This icy phenomenon creates vast expanses of pristine ice, becoming pathways for exploration and adventure. Communities emerge to embrace the frozen landscape, with Ontario’s Lake Simcoe becoming a hub for ice fishing. Thousands of huts pepper the icy expanse, forming a bustling village of camaraderie. Renowned photographer Richard Johnson documented this ephemeral beauty, capturing the soulful spirit of these icy communities in a stunning series of portraits, preserving their essence for generations.
