    Lovely. Looks like it’s cold where you are Eliza! We had a cold blast but it has turned milder today. 🙂

  8. Alice's avatar Alice says:

    That is a stunning photograph, Eliza! I think we only got about 5″ here, rainy, too. Last night it ‘only’ got down to 16°. Such a difference than where you are.

  9. Gorgeous! Your landscape is lovely at the moment.

  10. Amazing photo, Eliza. I used to live in “ice storm” country, and despite the driving challenges, loved those mornings when the world was coated in glass. 🙂 Gorgeous.

  15. Fine detail. Looks frosty.

    Amazing, the snowflakes

    • Eliza Waters's avatar Eliza Waters says:

      Rather than falling out of the sky, these crystals ‘grow’ overnight from moisture in the air and clinging to the stems of plants, etc. Sometimes they can look like feathers or ferns. Nature amazes!

    Absolutely gorgeous!! 😍😍

    Frame this Eliza. Such perfection.

  20. Glittering beauty, like a gem in the snow. I love these details Eliza.

  21. It was a superb frosty day. Glad you got this, Eliza. Couldn’t make up my mind…rime or hoar. There was some fog around.

    That is soooo beautiful

  23. naturebackin's avatar naturebackin says:

    It is exquisite. Can almost fancy the crystals tinkling like tiny wind chimes 🙂

  24. What a beauty! Looks like the fairies must have touched it.

  25. spanishwoods's avatar spanishwoods says:

    Just absolutely beautiful !!

  26. Jane Lurie's avatar Jane Lurie says:

    Magnificent, Eliza. Great that you capture these nature moments despite the frigid temps. Photo warrior! 🙂

  27. Widdershins's avatar Widdershins says:

    Crystal palace. 🙂

  28. Wonderful. I adore hoar frosts, but we rarely get them here. Great photo!

    • Eliza Waters's avatar Eliza Waters says:

      Thank you, Allison. Living near the river, we are apt to get hoarfrost more often, but is pretty limited to the immediate area. I’d love to see the frost fogs of trees in Scandinavia – those are spectacular!

  29. Burr! But beautiful.
