I love winter, and I love celebrating the creativity that Nature uses when decorating her frozen Earth. With very little sunlight, and nothing but freezing temperatures to work with, Nature masterfully combines water vapor and frigid air
to gift us with an infinite variety of crystalline forms.
Last weekend I was privileged to come across this glorious hoarfrost which is pictured above. While walking, I happened upon a stream bed which offered the perfect conditions for creating an endless number of these breathtaking masterpieces.
I was consumed by Awe, and once again was humbled by the beauty of Creation.
So as the Earth cycles into her winter season,
I respectfully thank God
for all of the elements that come together to create the Magic of Winter.
