We woke up to a magic wonderland this morning. Everything was coated with hoar frost. Hoar frost takes special conditions to form. THe air has to be very still to let the ice crystals grow, and very moist so there is water to form the ice. Usually it form on a cold foggy morning. And, of coarse, it has to be below freezing. When that happens, tiny ice crystals grow on everything, making it look rather fuzzy. I decided to play with the macro focus on my camera. I think I still hae a lot of learning to do, but here are a few of the results:
I think the little branch on the left on the photo above looks like a tiny little man.
