Ashfield photographer’s “Ice Visions” on display at Brattleboro Museum and Art Center Ashfield photographer Erik Hoffner kneels on the ice next to an ice fishing tip-up with one of his “Ice Visions” images. Contributed Photo/Erik Hoffner Hoffner captures these “galactic oddities” in the ice by skating out on the frozen lakes in the morning. With his camera aimed straight down at the refrozen ice, Hoffner captures black and white images that have the appearance of galaxies filled with shining stars or living cells.
