these are a year old the end of jan.,but i have to share them with you
cause they're so unique.just south of berlin is this twenty acre woods with a deep ravine. i can always find something interisting to shoot there.

many of us have seen frost flakes forming like it is snowing, but on a crystal clear  cold nite, even sometimes it happens during daylite, no clouds yet it seems to be snowing.these were taken under clear skies at about 15 degrees below zero, and not even a breath of wind at 8:40 am. the sun has been up for a little more than a few minutes. something was coming out of the ground for the frost to form on just at that one spot. nature lovers, i give youPopup Linkfra,Popup Linkfrb, Popup Linkfrc, Popup Linkfrd.

  • I wonder if it was a warm Spring and the warm moist air9Heat Rises) coming out of the ground hit the air and turned to frost. Neat!!!

  • MrWiz wonders if this is snow coming off the trees, the Moose wonders if this is formed by a warm spring. I don;t think it matters, this is just one more example of nature's awesome beauty, Thanks for showing us these.

  • all great...the last two are simply transcendental*! I lookeditup *relating to mystical or supernatural experience and therefore beyond the material world

  • Incredible images but I'm doubting my fairies or any mystical causes. Would love to know what causes the phenomena.

    seagullchuck, question reality, and you'll begin to question everything...being ignorant of the detail in a photo doesnt sit well with me...nor does intentionally avoiding knowledge... lol and apparently I didn't read the post right to start with, he said in that one spot...now that I look at it under the right mindset it is amazing

    Wow, whatever that is it is very cool. It doesn't get below freezing very often during the day here, so I've never heard of such a thing....
