An amazing photo

Someone put a funny caption on this, and I've copied it here, but I think the photo itself is pretty amazing.

Here is the news story, with the name of the photographer and the place where the photo was taken:

Staged. There is no way the ice imprint would slide off perfectly intact and so evenly balanced and then simply remain suspended long enough to snap a picture.

Rated: Lie with malicious intent.

@Peaches I am relaxed. Damn it. Why does everyone say that to me?
Peaches · F
@MarkPaul Because you never say anything sweet and kind.🤷‍♀️

@Peaches That's not even true! I often show empathy. But, I do it with brutal honesty.

{@dr watson ] perhaps it has not died it is genetically frozen 😆

@smiler2012 To be resuscitated in the future, after we have switched to metric speed limit signs!

Hahaha, 😆 that's awesome! We had so much ice over here as well a few weeks ago.

I'm not sure if the photo is quite 'real', but it's pretty cool!
I think it already has the best caption ....

Thank you for sharing...

I don't think that sign is going to a good place.

@SW-User Im trying to figure out how that happens and i find several contradictions.
The letters stand out. If that's the case then perhaps the black paint has a bump to it, but then the ice should get stuck on the top of the letters because it creates a ledge for the ice to hang onto. But let's assume that the sign got hot and it melted from the inside and out and created an air gap but the outside is still intact, then how come it didnt get stuck on the very top of the sign? Did it just melt through the roof of the ice? If it has frozen like a sheet on the front of the sign then perhaps this could work but i dont know how the ice stuck to the sign like that in the first place.

Also the letters look the way it'd look if you did it digitally with noise filters, I've done that a lot.

There's a possibility it's real but I think it's fake.
