Spring Frost at Sunrise

The beauty of a frosty sunrise cleanses
and invigotates the senses.

View towards the berry patch and espalier

Icing on the strawberries


Pine stumps on what is to become my spring garden bed
a lonely Nicotiana sylvestris in foreground


Iced clover


Frosted raspberry leaves enjoying the first rays of sun


View across the fence, the holding paddock
to the second holding paddock .
This little and ephemeral transformation is
the nearest I get to an all concealing snowcover.

  3. Hi! Thank you for your comment on my blog.
    In Japan it's the end of summer.
    So I'm really pleased to see the icing leaves.
    Because it's humid in Tokyo.
    So I feel something cooool!
    Thank you:)

  6. Oh, it looks enchanted. I know it may not be a popular feeling, but I cannot wait for frost! The colder the better for me. And, Edward.
