Looking out of the window early in the morning, I see frost-covered roofs. Morning sun soon melts it all away, so this morning, before church, I headed out into the garden with my camera. Delicate crystals edge the oregano leaves like finely crocheted lace and speckle my neighbour's grapevine hanging over our fence. Brown, decaying hydrangea leaves are transformed with a dusting of frost.
Beauty in the small things. I'll be linking to Mosaic Monday later this afternoon. In the meantime, we're going out on the water, with friends. The sun is shining and we must make the most of these days.
I wish you a Sunday filled with beauty whether the weather is frosty or sunny.
Those are beautiful shots, I love the hoar frost, and it's not always around, you have to be quick to capture it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday.

Cold but lovely. Frost is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful frosty mosaic. And yet it will warm up enough for a boat outing! Sounds ideal to me.
ReplyDeleteFrost can sure paint some pretty things in the garden, the green leaves edged in it are nice.

ReplyDeleteYou have captured the first frost so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Thanksgiving week!
How pretty the morning is when Jack Frost visits at night! His icy fingers leave just enough 'embroidery' on the leaves still hanging on to make them so beautiful. Soon it's gone, unlike 12" of snow such as that which fell and buried Western Ontario last night! Some bloggers are prisoners in their homes today......I hope everyone is safe, has heat and food etc.
ReplyDeleteLovely snippets from your garden Lorrie - hope it's a bit warmer on the water this afternoon.

Beautiful post. I hope you enjoy visiting with friends. Take care and have a blessed week, Jen
ReplyDeleteGlad you are taking advantage of this glorious right in your eyes sunshine. Hope you remembered your sunglasses!
ReplyDeleteExquisite! Such a heavy, pronounced frosting it was, too.
ReplyDeleteLorrie, lovely frosty images. I love the green leaves in the middle. Have a happy week ahead!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely frosty photos - we had a little frost this morning - then sunshine and it melted - and now clouds - well I could see the clouds if it wasn't so dark already.
ReplyDeleteI like the way the frost highlights the oregano leaves. I hope the remainder of your Sunday was as lovely as its start, Lorrie.

Lovely! I like the little curl of the grapevine!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing a hoar frost, Lorrie. It is so enchanting and your photos really capture it so well.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your happy Thanksgiving wishes!
Our parts of the Pacific coast are vastly different. It was warm on the beach and the water was not too cold.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful are your frost photos!
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Holland.
I do enjoy frosty morning and the beauty that they show! Not so much the bone-chilling cold.
ReplyDeleteThe delicate beauty of frost on the leaves - I understand how these simple things are what inspired the great poets.

Such a beautiful capture. We have not had a frost quite yet....but I know it is coming
ReplyDeleteAs we enter into winter, many of us are turning our camera lens to those small scenes of nature that become magical with a little dusting of frost or snow. Am enjoying seeing all these examples of intimate winter photography--like yours--on Mosaic Monday.
ReplyDeleteYour frosty pictures are beautiful, Lorrie. We had frost first thing this morning too....lovely to see.

I love your frosty photos. I can't wait to capture shots like these but it is just damp here and makes everything look quite muddy.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week xx

ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely mosaic!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful frosty mosaic!
ReplyDeleteHi Lorrie, pretty, pretty and we are getting some white showing as I write, not frost, but light snow and sleet~ Happy week~
