Hoar frost

Yesterday morning, after a night of very heavy fog, I looked outside just at sunrise to see all the trees in our neighborhood covered with white frost. And as the sun rose on a clear morning and touched the white coating, it was magical, as if the world was white and new and shiny again. There's a bird in the tree in the fourth shot.
I wondered if you other Calgarians caught it or was it only in my area, Oakridge near the reservoir.

these are very pretty. I did something similar a while back with our last snow storm. just walked to the end of the street taking shots of stuff.

Yep, the whole city had it Mbrager. Very pretty against the blue sky.

Wow ... that really would be a magical sight to me!

Wow, that is a real heavy frost. Beautiful pic's.

Nice stuff here, good to see someone got out while I was stuck at work.

My shooting buddy Matt spent the day out there, after shooting hundreds of photos including some good shots of Downy woodpeckers his $17.00 16 GB card from China crapped out and lost everything. I guess there is a reason to buy good cards.

Bummer for your friend, Greg. Bargains aren't always bargains.
Thanks for the compliments from everyone about the photos.
