This morning we woke up to the hardest frost that I have seen for a long, long time and it was beautiful. The photographs that I took this morning really don't do it justice. Every plant, tree and shrub was frozen and it lasted all day. It was a truly magical sight .....
That tall tree in our garden was given to us at a horticultural college in a plastic cup with one tiny shoot emerging from a seed. It was after the great storm of 1987 and they were encouraging everyone to plant a tree. It is now over 70 feet !!!!
This was the beautiful English scene that greeted me as I came out of the pub in the early evening, of the church on the village green.
Pretty or what ?!!!
all images ....... MINE !!
Absolutely beautiful Jackie, there's nothing like an English village is there!! Very good photos too :)

Jackie ~ these shots are gorgeous!! I love mornings like this and to be able to grab the camera and go outside to capture it is so much fun. So glad that you shared them. xo

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Jacqueline, this is just lovely, so happy you shared. Cannot believe the spider webs! Beautiful photos. We are freezing in Houston right now, but we won't have this kind of frost...by the time the sun comes up it will all melt away as the temps rise. Merry Christmas !!

This is magnificent! your pictures are so beautiful, ethereal...I just want to run to JFK, jump on a flight to London and run to your town....We would have a pint together and celebrate the quiet beauty of the world we live in.
ReplyDeleteI wish I would greeted by a scene as beautiful as that when I walked out of a pub!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is MAGICAL! The way you captured this beauty is amazing. It makes me remember the days as a child living in the city I grew up in and way the frost would form on the fences and gates. Now I am feeling rather nostalgic. How curious the way it forms on the iron fencing and gates. What a wonderful capture Jackie!!!! Now I wish I could just be there to see it for myself.
ReplyDeleteI am astonished at the size of that tree now---from a cup to a beautiful specimen of a tree!
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas season and sending much love your way!
Now this is what I call a magical wonderland - beautifully photographed - how I long to have a white Christmas - one day I will make it happen. Until then I shall continue to share yours - thank you ! Fx
ReplyDeleteI love to see the snow on trees. Today is snowing heavy in Italy and it's really a magic show...

These photos are the very incarnation of winter - the hoar (hope you do call it that) upon the spidernets, or the big "needles" on the plants - terrific! And the photo of the church: just to melt away (it would give a wonderful background to any Poirot-adaption). Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteIt was absolutely beautiful, wasn't it? I took photos too Jackie ;-) great images, well captured!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend...rain, I think unfortunately no frost :-(
