Very pretty. Is this the first frost of the year?

No, we’ve had a couple of light ones but this is the most pronounced so far. Thanks, Ann.

Beautiful light and colour – love oak leaves. We only had our first frost a couple of days ago.

At a time of the year when most beauty has faded frost does add some charm to the picture. Thanks, Ann.

What alluring frost, and what a rich color to play it off against.

Most color is gone now, but there remains a few bits here and there and of course a lot of leaves on the ground.Some oaks hang on to their leaves longer and these white pines do. The light overcast helped.

Nature’s reds are so varied, and so beautiful. This is an especially attractive red, and the perfect foil for the frost.

This wasn’t at all what I was thinking about when I drove to this location…there’s an old barn that I was looking to photograph. But it pays to look down as well as up and all around. Nature’s icing made all the drying and fading plants look beautiful.

beautiful, I can see each individual tiny crystal. I love looking at them, much more than feeling them form on my ears

There was enough moisture in the air so much of the low plants had crystals. Thanks, Robert.

I guess I do. I try to get out as much as possible which definitely creates more opportunities.

It certainly does. I have not been able to get out very much recently, which makes me dive into the archives. An exploration of forgotten or never realized treasures.

I do that often also. Some were overlooked and some required skills that were not there at the time. Vision changes too.

I am sure it was…especially if you like crunchy food*. 🙂 Thanks, Yvonne. 🙂
*PSA…oak contains tannins which make some animals sick- not squirrels though 🙂 – and acorns should be boiled before humans can eat them.

Frost-covered leaves are so appealing, and not always easy to photograph – this is perfection, Steve.
