Another picture from the rare recent frosty morning: an artichoke left on the plant, which was decorated with tiny ice crystals.

Half in early morning sunlight, half in shade, a fallen sycamore leaf on the short grass of a football field on a frosty morning.

A thin layer of ice covered the shallow pool on a frosty morning.

Another view through the morning mist on Boxing Day. Castlecroft Bridge carries a farm track across the Staffs & Worcs Canal.

Magpie on the ground. The light catching its wing and chest giving the feathers an iridescent pale blue colour.

Mallards swimming in deep water in what is normally a riverside field. The birds can be seen in the distance in the pictures in the previous post.
