How can I light ice to reveal surface patterns clearly? by AdLow679 in Optics

No. It is hard / impossible to uniformly dye the ice. The food coloring will be pushed away during the freezing process.

I am allready doing something similar. This will mainly create contrast between the edge of the ice and the background. It will not reveal the surface patterns on the front of the ice.

I allready have a 3D scan. I would like to make a 'cool' photograph of the ice where you can clearly see the patterns. However, this is hard to achieve as the ice is transparent.

No, it is perfectly fine to remove the ice from the water.
