Sugar Coated


Just this one picture for today as it is my favourite shot from my frosty morning walk last weekend. This tiny little plant (no bigger than a penny) would have been easily overlooked but for the sugary coating and up close I think it makes a great picture.

Frosty Fence Posts




As with yesterday's images today's shots were taken on Saturday in Preston and before the sun melted the frost I captured the minute crystals on the top of a couple of fence posts. Enlarged here you can see the intricate structure of each unique little shard which in reality were barely more than one or two millimeters tall. You can also see that while from a distance the frost looks like a white carpet it is in fact totally clear.
