A Random Post

I couldn't decide on an appropriate post for today so I picked this one.

An Unusual Feature

I saw this coil of wire perched on top of the stone wall by the side of the path.  I thought it was an interesting feature and took a few shots from different angles.  I had intended to post just one picture but couldn't decide which I liked best.  Of the ones I took these two were my clear favourites but trying to choose one was more difficult.

If pushed I would say the second is the best image but you might have a different opinion...

Frost Bitten

Over night much of the country had a decent fall of snow but yesterday, before the snow, everywhere was covered in a heavy frost.  I had an interesting couple of hours taking pictures in and around Preston's Miller Park and Avenham Park.  It was really cold but the frost disappeared very quickly even in the weak winter sun so I was lucky to get these shots.

Barbed wire might seem an odd subject for a picture but with the frost it becomes a really interesting image, at least I think so.

The second image of the new bud caught my eye with its dusting frost which close up looks almost like salt or sugar.

I have more frosty pictures to share but will save them for later in the week.
