Some ice crystals forming on glass in this lovely warm spell! Took me a while to get the dirt spots off which were on the glass.

That first looks like a tree. Cool shots.

Very cool! What type of lens did you use to capture these?

Scott, I was going out filming and I saw the ice on the window so stopped and got out my 105mm macro lens and tripod and spent a while filming the ice crystals. Nikon D300 camera. Focusing turned out to quite difficult because the patterns were so dispersed and small so I had to use manual focus.
