Eliza Waters 
Oh how pretty, Eliza!
Thank you, Donna!
Exquisite Eliza!
Thank you, Maria! x
The frosty twists are well balanced by the frosted seeds – a very cold picture!
Thanks, Anne. Some mornings it is worth bundling up to go out to make a few captures. 🙂
Great shot. Creative titling.
Thank you, Dawn! 🙂
😊🙏🏽😊
I’ve thought about adding beautyberry to our yard but thought it would not survive here but this nice image is encouraging.. 🙂
It would do fine, though some years mine dies to the ground with winter-kill, but like buddleia, it regrows. The ones further south are more robust, but the bluebirds find mine tasty enough. 🙂
This photo gets an A+.
Aw, thanks much, Judy! 🙂
Icing Sugar coating! Lovely shot 🙂
Thank you, Dale!
You are most welcome!
Very artistic, nice shot!
Thank you, Hien!
Definitely seasonally decorated.
For sure 🙂 thanks, Alice!
Nature at its most beautiful!
Truly– thanks, Donna!
I’ve never seen beautyberry like this!
I can imagine not! Our bush often dies to the ground in winter and has to start all over again in spring, so I think they aren’t as robust as the southern ones.
It’s indeed a frosty picture. Well done you!
Thank you!
The twisting leaves are so pretty outlined in frost.
Thank you!
Beautiful, nicely composed.
Thank you, Tom!
There is still much beauty to be found as the temperatures dip and you did just that!
Thank you, Belinda! Frost can be simply beautiful. 🙂
Pretty! Your attention to the details of the natural world around you always uncovers exquisite beauty.
Thank you very much, Kris! 💜
A really beautiful photograph. I love the colors. 😊
Thank you!
You have captured the furling up of those leaves well Eliza. Such a pretty photo. 😃
Many thanks, Cathy!
Beautiful capture, Eliza. I just love the blue “trim”–it’s gorgeous outlining that leaf. Nice find!!
Thank you, Tina!
Very pretty. 👏😊
Thank you, Pepper!
Beautiful capture, I love searching for simple treasures on frosty mornings.🙂
Thank you! ❄️☃️
Frosty twists indeed! And so beautiful too. 🙂
Thank you, Joanne!
The relatively dark leaves are nice against a lighter background.
Thanks, Steve!
A fantastic close-up.
Thank you!
Gorgeous!
Thank you, Ali!
Brilliant shot!
Wow, who know frost could be so beautiful?
Thanks, Monika. Getting out early can be rewarding. 🙂
…and C-O-L-D! 😆
Yup… down coat, wool accessories and Sorel’s a must!
I know just what you mean. That reminds me to bring out the Yak Tracks. Being out of town for a week and avoiding the snow was a treat but the piper will demand payment now that I’m back home. 🙂
Very pretty! They remind me of the rawhide look-alikes Monk is fond of for chewing.
Thank you, Debbie!
Wonderful find and close-up composition!
Thank you very much, Denise!
Very artistic with a perfect caption!
Thanks much, Barbara!
