I woke up yesterday to find everything in our yard here in the Springs covered in hoar frost. Quite a beautiful scene, with the fog in the air, the snow on the ground, and the frost on everything else it was definitely a study in shades of white. This first one is from my yard looking up at Cheyenne Mountain. The rest of the photos were also taken in the yard.

Hi Scott
All the shots are very nice. #2 is my favorite.

Great serious, I love number three.

Fence and frost shot is awesome looks like frozen barbed wire.

Who you callin' a hoar?!
Those are really cool. I'm with Jody, that fence shot is very interesting. I like #3 a lot, too.

These are wonderful, Scott. I love 2, 3, and the fence image. I bet at a larger size, #4 looks great.
Posted by Scott Fricke on February 21, 2010 at 9:40 PM
Thanks everyone for your comments. Paul, #4 does look really cool viewed at a larger size where you can see the ice crystals a lot better.

Definitely interesting shots, especially the close-ups. 2, 3, and 4 for me too. Not a bad haul from your own yard!
Posted by Brian Jackson on February 21, 2010 at 10:01 PM
I really like #2 and #3.

Way cool! We've had some really awesome frozen fog this month (in Indy), but of course I haven't had my camera with me to shoot it. Great captures Scott!

Wow, that last fence shot is awesome! The others are quite good as well, but the last one is definitely my favorite.

A very nice collection. That leaf shot (#2) really stands out for me.
Posted by Jeff Beard on February 22, 2010 at 12:23 PM
A great set. I like #2 and the fence shot is really cool.
Posted by Bill Pelzmann on February 22, 2010 at 12:47 PM
Some remarkable crystals! That fence is unique.

That is some killer frost. Almost literally. Fascinating formations. The detail of #2 is great, and I really like the comp of #4 (maybe without vignette).
Posted by Mel Ladewig on February 22, 2010 at 2:17 PM
I like the forms and tones in #3.

Another big fan of the fence, although I like 'em all.
Posted by Art Escobado on February 22, 2010 at 10:40 PM
The fence shot is sweet!
Posted by Stan Rose on February 23, 2010 at 7:46 AM
I like 2&3 and the fence too! The others have potential, but the bright bg is making it hard to make out the frost detail.
Posted by Dan Walters on February 23, 2010 at 8:46 PM
Great stuff! Like the detail and the BW in the second image.
