Yes...read it and weep, my friends...frost. We woke up to an icy glaze covering the outside world the morning before last. The little ice crystals sure are beautiful, they also look bizarre on pumpkins, mums and vibrant autumn leaves. Not to worry...the cold didn't last....we're thankfully back to normal temps. Though I think the cold will be back next week...that's New England for you ;-)

Hope everyone is having a great week. Enjoy the rest of your day, my friends :-)

Zerbrechlich, doch so schön

für eine Weile.

Du Zauberfrost, ein kleines bisschen

noch verweile.

The frost was heavy - not quite a Hoar frost except along the top wire.

I have no longing for the cold season, and I might even say that I dread it a little. But it offers good opportunities to take more photos, of course. Here's a picture from January 2021. I just found it on my hard drive and can't remember how I edited it anymore, but I like it :-)

I really appreciate any Views, Faves and Comments and I will try to visit your sites in due course. Thank you so much.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !

Today is a black and white day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate Sliders Sunday.

Here we go with another macro picture of frost on my window. Since it was very cold lately, frost is all over my windows… I hate winter but I must admit: frost is my new obsession ! I love to look at all the tiny details and I hope you like it as well.

Have a beautiful day ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Yesterday, I had to take care of my decluttering process so i’m sorry to say but apparently there is not enough hours in one day for decluttering and answering your comments (who knew that decluttering could be so time consuming ???). I apologize for that and I will try to catch up as soon as possible my friends !!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

may be a romantic touch lays over the frozen land.../

Någonting om frost...kanske ett romantiskt drag vilar över de vita landet.../Algo acerca de la escarcha...tal vez reposa un toque romántico sobre el paisaje helado...(DSC_7766-5)

Had to stop the car to capture this lonely tree while exploring the wide open spaces near Leamington, Ontario

Have a wonderful weekend all my Flickr friends whatever the weather & thank you for all your kind comments & faves! Taken on the last day of January in Bushey Rose Garden.

Morning frost on a truck skeleton at Wagonseller farm, a little known part of Valley Forge NHP. Unlike the main part of the park, which plays an iconic role in the early American history, heavily visited and rather very touristy, Wagonseller is disconnected from the main section, on the other side of the river and on the other side of a highway beyond the river, and is not developed at all. It used to be a working farm and remains frozen in time from the days is was abandoned (I believe the park stabilizes the farm buildings to prevent further decay, but that's about it). I highly recommend it. If you can find it, that is :-) Well, geotag to your rescue. It is perfectly accurate. It is not a secret location.

И, из совершенно другой ассоциации: "... и подснежники растут у старшины на голове"
