It was too dark to investigate and the park was locked until this morning. At dawn I set out to investigate, having only just returned to my office, this is the first email I write. What I discovered was so strange and unusual the first step was to upload the documentation to my website and contact you as a matter of urgency.<\/p>\n<p>Within what appeared to be a rather contained area of roughly 200 acres coinciding remarkably with the boundary of Victoria Park, I found and recorded more than 300 occurrences of what I refer to as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153ice balls\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. These are roughly spherical objects ranging from ~30cm to more than ~150cm diameter. For now, until more information becomes available to me, I must surmise these \u00e2\u20ac\u0153ice balls\u00e2\u20ac\u009d are similar in origin to hail. Perhaps this exaggerated scale is the latest phenomenon associated to our rapidly changing climate.<\/p>\n<p>Martin has posted his <a href=\"http:\/\/iceballs.greyisgood.eu\/\">documentation online.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bjp-online.com\/british-journal-of-photography\/blog-post\/1651412\/photographs-strange-alien-iceballs-victoria-park\">British Journal of Photography<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/boingboing.net\/2009\/02\/09\/weird-ice-balls-in-l.html\">Boing Boing<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Late last night I began hearing reports of strange icy objects in a part of east London (UK) commonly referred to as Victoria Park.
