Morning Hoarfrost on Bramble
Wednesday, November 14th, 2007
Warren, Connecticut. We’ve had cold nights for a few weeks now and by the time I’m outside each day the evening hoarfrost has melted from plants. This morning I was out early enough so that many plants was covered in a most interesting way. Unlike the dead of winter where plants can seem lifeless, this morning it seemed more like someone sprayed a summer scene with liquid oxygen, preserving the movement and life of the scene but coating it in frost.
Richard, what a fine image, with beautiful highlights and shadow areas.
Gary, I knew you’d like this one. When you come I’ll show you the bush, it’s right on Melius road next to a swamp and beaver dam. Remind me, we’ll go there early some morning.
