It's almost like an aura, or sunset, or sunrise. (or Don King's hair??!!) LOL! I don't think I've ever seen an oil slick on snow. It's interesting and beautiful, yet somehow disconcerting that something as pristine as snow is sullied by something as vital (yet vilified) as oil.
Love this photo! Would you mind if one of these days I wrote an ekphrastic poem about one of your photos or paintings for my blog? I would, of course, include credits and a link to your blog.
This reminds that the sunsets in my hometown were more beautiful because of some of the chemicals burned off at the oil refineries in the next town - a strange phenomenon.

Beautiful! An explosion of colors!
I'm reminded of the name of one of the "sponsors" of the "Lives of the Cowboys" skits on "A Prairie Home Companion" — the Rainbow Motor Oil Company.

Made me think, Dean!

It's so weird how beautiful an oil slick is. This reminds me of the northern lights when you have the snow there too. =]
beautiful!
wow, that really is pretty. Who would have thought oil could be pretty?
This is totally from left field, but when I look at this, I think Hawaii.
I know, I know. I need to lay off the hallucinogenics.
Beautiful.
I'm liking these wordless Wednesdays. Am I ruining it by speaking?
This particular one looks a lot like a window, splattered with the blood of a rainbow.
Amazing my friend how you capture such beauty in the everyday :)
naturgesetz!
"An explosion of colors" is very fitting here!

I like the idea of it looking like an aura!

No, the comments actually enhance Wordless Wednesdays in my opinion!
"...splattered with the blood of a rainbow."
Ooooh, so dark yet so cool sounding!

you should have not said what it was.
it was way more interesting before i read the header :)
Another example of your keen eye!
Whenever I think of oil on concrete, I always think of just pitch black goop. This was a nice surprise. :)
You really have an eye for beauty.
