Of Ice and... More Ice

It snowed. A lot. Then it got warm. Then it got cold again. Very cold. The result? What you see here: ice. Everything in sight is encased in the glittering, glowing stuff. Each twig on each tree looks as though it is made of glass. Water-drops, frozen in time, decorate the world like delicate tassels. Through all this, tiny, icy snowflakes flutter down from a clear sky.

 

I was going to take a picture to celebrate Chinese New Year (happy year of the rabbit, folks!) but I got too distracted by this outdoor phenomenon to think of photographing anything else.
