Frosty Thanksgiving Morning


We woke up to a very frosty but beautiful morning.


The night was clear, no coastal fog, and that means frost. It also usually means a beautiful sunny day, but cold. The heavy wind seems to have disappeared, blowing somewhere else. I guess there's a lot of snow dumped onto the Sierra.

The reminders of summer looked pretty cold as well.


All the water was frozen including everything that it holds.


But the frost painted all these amazing pictures, I couldn't help but just love it. No matter the cold.

Have a lovely Thanksgiving!

Oh, ich liebe deine Fotos - sie sind soooo schön. Das letzte gefällt mir ganz besonders gut. Hier hat es auch gefroren und geschneit - bisschen liegt immer noch. Ich mag noch keinen Winter haben. Hast du eigentlich meine mail bekommen?

Wonderful photos... works of art from Nature and so well captured! Did your parents have a church or civic wedding? If you tell me where it was I will take a photo for you! Love JoZarty x

wow - what beautiful pictures. Aren't we blessed that we can see and witness all that nature brings and gives us. Your photography is breathtaking. I'd love a better camera to do some photos live these although i haven't got places like that around me.

Thank you so much for sharing that beauty.
