Sometimes we have all the weather at the same time and this is what you end up with when the sun comes out the next day. Spot the rabbit?

Best wishes for 2019! ❄️

Finding beauty in the cold. I bundled up and took my camera out for a walk but the fresh window frost seemed to hold the most intrigue. It is lovely too, along the river’s edge where the water moves so fast that the cold can’t hold it still. It seems like a good time to make soup!

The Little Buzz

There’s a little buzz in the garden, in between all the raindrops and downpours that have been going on..

Frost and Traces

January 16, 2017January 16, 2017 | drawandshoot

Traces of this morning’s delicate frost fading on the window as the day starts to warm (above) and the frost before it starts to fade away.

I have made several hundred photographs of frost on this window over the years, some of which are posted here , but I hadn’t really noticed the traces that are left behind as it disappears.

Mosaic patterns forming on the flora as the ice crowns begin to surrender to the warmth of the sun.
