Wintery days of Discovery

[» Scotty]

Woke up this morning to a new batch of winter screaming to me..."Get out here with that camera!"...so I obeyed post haste.

I'm a bit rusty...but I think I managed to capture some goodness.

Scotty- beautiful frosty captures! Nice detailed close up of the wasp. It's nice to see how
winter progresses through your eyes. Air- nice warm colors on the leaves contrasting the
coldness of the ice and snow photos. I like the icicle macro.

#1 does it for me, there's something wonderful about the orange / red of the leaf, with it's little fringe of ice.

Scotty Great set man. I'm wondering if the plant in O is a canadian strain of Datura. This stuff used to grow in the hills where I grew up, nasty nasty. I love how the green is catching the sun in P against that cool blue snow. Q is my favorite, I can distinctly see an infinite ice nebula fractal in the center of each of those drips.... I better lay off the datura
JK man these are sweet!

Air You too man! Awesome stuff, this lack of cali sun is enough to make a podling flip his kadoozle... But we need it. I heard we've already gotten more water this year than the past couple years combined. 2.... so dope. One day I'll find a frozen water drip, one day. I've seen them in the freezer before, but never in "the field". 5 is simply rad, a bobulous icey something. 8 and 10 also strike me.

Thanks all!

Great additions Air...that little sparkle at the end of that icicle in 2 transports me like the star to Neverland. The ice bubbles in 5 are just terrific. Red leavs in winter are probably the most vibrant...if you can find them.
I'm going out again today...so we will see if anything comes from it.
