A Heavy Frost
There is a winter chill in ol' PDX. We had a thick, heavy frost this morning and the temperatures are hovering below freezing. I bundled up and snapped a few wintering foliage pics to enjoy the intricate icy, textures.
Hope you are enjoying your own winter-y scene. Cheers, Jenni
Very pretty! Frost makes for such beautiful pictures. Hope your fingers and toes have recovered.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful, beautiful photos - especially those red leaves - are they blueberries?!
ReplyDeleteHi Mark, those are leaves from a 'Nandia' shrub. The new shoots in the sprint will be a bright, chartreuse green. Lovely, compact ornamental bush.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful frosty photos.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Sunday ~ FlowerLady
These are beautiful pictures! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos, it seems like the whole northern hemisphere is in for a cold snap right now, it is cold in London too, and tomorrow evening the first snow of this winter will arrive!
ReplyDeleteStay warm, take care, Helene.
No wintery scenes here, but I certainly enjoyed your frost-covered shots today. They provided a little relief from the hot, steamy conditions outside. Sounds like it's rather cool over there at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI wish we just had a frost here. It is -1 right now and hovered around 2 degrees all day. I love your photos. Especially the red leaf. Thanks for sharing and stay warm.
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie, sure is chilly in your neck of the woods! One of the nice things about living with so much moisture is that, generally, the first freezing day will give us a nice frost. Today, it's just cold and dry.
DeleteBeautiful! Looks like a winter fairy visited your garden! : )
ReplyDeleteFrosty conditions makes for beautiful photos but icy toes, fingers and nose
ReplyDeleteJenni, such beautiful photos but at such a price for your poor plants, I hear you. At least up here we get a snow covering...
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in White Rock, we used to get freezing temps, and I would lose so many plants...sigh.

Lovely frosty photos!
ReplyDeleteThe great thing about our PNW frost is that it's usually vacuumed up around noon by some angular sun rays so, even if you can't make a snowman out of it, overall it's a magical and just so pretty sign of winter-- lovely images!
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer, It's been frosty and foggy for almost two weeks down here. It's getting very old. :) Your photos show how beautiful this time of year can be. Love them!
