There's nothing like hoarfrost

to fire up my photo-snapping mojo.

Isn't this spectacular?


The creek was beautiful.


I loved the contrast of the red gate against all that white.


Even common weeds turn magical.

And since there was no wind today, the frost stayed around for quite awhile, even after the sun burned through the fog. Really beautiful day!

I'm crazy for hoarfrost. We haven't had any this year but I have tons of photos on my hard drive.

Wonderful photos - but it looks oh so cold!! My favourite is the one with the red gate, the bridge and the creek and the misty aura.
