A Sparkling Ice Armor

"Every leaf and twig was this morning covered with a sparkling ice armor; even the grasses in exposed fields were hung with innumerable diamond pendants, which jingled merrily when brushed by the foot of the traveler. It was literally the wreck of jewels and the crash of gems....Such is beauty ever-neither here nor there, now nor then-neither in Rome nor in Athens, but wherever there is a soul to admire. If I seek her elsewhere because I do not find her at home, my search will prove a fruitless one." -Henry David Thoreau

Wow, these are incredible, I love how you captured all the ice crystals but didn't loose the person in the process. That first one is beautiful!

Where is that? How come winter is still gorgeous where you are? It is all grey and yucky at my house. Your mom looks great in the dress. I'm glad it is still being used.
