Frosted

We had a heavy fog overnight, so heavy still this morning that I couldn’t get any good photos. But once it cleared and the sun rose high enough I saw that frost had lightly coated everything, and with the angle of the sun all was outlined and sparkling with tiny white crystals.

Of course, as soon as the sun touched the frost it began to melt so I only had a few minutes to run around my back yard and get everything at the right angle, which was not possible, so I captured what I could, including the “frostbow” at the end.
