Rime on the berries and leaves of ivy bushes recently.

Frost on the remaining seeds of a nettle.

The remains of a robust thistle on the morning after the first heavy frost in mid-January.

Rosebay willowherb with its extremities coated in frost.

A tranquil scene, but the biggest open-air party in Europe would take place a few hundred yards from this spot later that night.

The wild cousin of the one whose natural habitat is on the shelves of the more upmarket supermarkets.
