Wikipedia says:
Ice stock sport (also known as Bavarian Curling) is a winter sport, somewhat similar to curling. In German, it is known as Eisstockschießen. Competitors slide ice stocks over an ice surface, aiming for a target, or to cover the longest distance. Ice stocks have a gliding surface, to which a stick (ca 30 cm) is attached. The sport, mostly practised in southern Germany, Austria and Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, has been demonstrated at the Winter Olympic Games on two occasions.

How do you play Ice stock?

We could google it, but I'm going to guess that it's like bocce.

I actually like the second photo. It kind of reminds me a couple - right tree is a male, left is the female, lol.
Photo of the people playing Ice stock is cool too. How do you play Ice stock?

thanks for the feeback.
I'm using a Canon EOS 600D
people on the third pic are playing Ice stock, as you can see better on this new pic
@nikonguy: there is no manipulation at all, I don't know why the ice form the swirls, maybe due to the plants on the groundIMG_0184.jpg

Nice pics. My guess is a Nikon @ about 35mm. I'm guessing
Nikon by the saturation of greens and blues and dynamic range.
Strange swirls in the last pic - any manipulation on this one in
Lightroom?
Welcome to our group and looking forward to viewing more pics
from you.

We look forward to seeing many of your photographs.
What camera are you using? I was unable to tell from the photo's details.

These trees are most unusual. Do you know the species?
And the frozen lake... Very nice. I particularly like the one with the boat.
I can feel how cold the seated couple must be as they watch the people on the ice.

jaydev.... Yes the one person does look very much like the bowler in a cricket game.
I doubt that they would be playing cricket on the ice, but one never knows.

Nice shots, particularly the first and third one.
Are they playing cricket?
