  • Johnny S

    Johnny S

    An absolutely stunning capture.

  • Jan Piller replied

    Thanks Johnny! That’s hoar frost all over the trees and weeds – it grows on everything in foggy atmosphers and is really stunning to see it live. In these parts it doesn’t last long – conditions have to be just right and as soon as the sun comes up it’s gone again. Needless to say, this was taken when it was still dark out – long exposure with a tripod and the frost started forming on my tripod and on my dog!

    Thank you Max. That’s hoar frost all over the trees and weeds – the photo taken just before sunrise on a long exposure. The fog obscured everything else.
