Jack Frost Nipping ...


This was the view through my daughter's window yesterday morning. Thankfully the ice was on the outside. So I quickly took these shots, and then was horrified when I realised the battery on my camera had run out. The sun was gradually rising, and I thought I could get a better picture with more light outside. ... But by the time my camera was charged unfortunately all the ice was melted. 

I'm sure there is a scientific reason for the beautiful patterns, but in my opinion Jack Frost has been out with his paint box.

  8. My Dad told us as children that the frost designs on the windows was from fairies skating on the glass during the night.
