Monday's frosty morning.......

Hoar Frost
We had this on Sunday morning also but today the sun was shining which gave me more beautiful shots. This is a shot of my birch tree.  Without the frost it is just a bunch of bare branches.



Looking down Cedar Street.  The neighborhood looks wonderful and yet it is hard to get a good shot of nature without seeing the cars, houses, garbage cans and street poles. They don't look bad, they just don't help it to be a pure nature shot.

I love both photos Larry and that first one of the tree is just beautiful with the blue sky.

Beautiful! The snow against the lovely blue sky is gorgeous.

Stunning!!! It is so ironic, Larry..we had hoarfrost here this morning and I was rushing around like a madwoman to get out there and get photos of it...it is my FAVORITE kind of winter photos..I LOVE it. Ours wasn't as thick as your tree..it is breathtaking. I'll be posting my photos in about a week or so...as I am behind in posting some of my shots and I don't want to get them out of order.
