"In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary." ~ Aaron Rose
This time of year often finds us waking up to a frost encrusted world.
It looks to me like Mother Nature has added a sugar coating to everything!
So, a couple mornings last week found me out photographing our yard and
what's left of my garden.
These experiences made me think about the accuracy of photographer, Aaron Rose's quote.
My equation would read something like this -
Scraggly, unassuming garden + Frost + Sparkling, morning sunlight =
Spectacular fantasy land, especially from a macro perspective!
Eventually, the brilliant sunlight melted all the frost crystals
resulting in water droplets everywhere.
More magic.
Finally, I left the garden with my treasure trove of images;
ready for the warmth of my kitchen and some hot tea.
Wishing you just the right light, at the right time,
to make everything extraordinary!

Love your sugar coated images. We don't have them here. I'm glad we have dew drops and rain droplets.
Hello Anna,
Another elegant collection of beauties.
From rime to riches. The pearls on the grass are breathtaking.
Wonderful frosty images.. especially the ones with the colorful droplets.
I love the little droplets. Gorgeous macros.

Frozen nature and frozen memories of delight!
I'll join you for coffee ;-)
Beautiful photography!
Stunning macros. The ones with the water droplets are drop dead gorgeous. So much beautiful variation of color and detail. My yards had this in the mornings, too, but not every morning. Hope you have a not too cold week. genie
You did turn this into a fantasy land! I love your equation, and every little frozen drop you captured. Just gorgeous!
Gorgeous frosty pic's and stunning macros!
Isn't it amazing (and beautiful) that an entirely new world opens up when you view it through a macro lens? These are just gorgeous Anna, especially the last one!
Thank you so much for sharing these at The Creative Exchange.
Have a wonderful afternoon!

Frost truly is beautiful when you see it up close!
Love the frost!! What exquisite images!
Wonderful "frosty" photos. Beautiful light and fantastic round drops.
Frozen Wonderland - Wonderful shots of the frost covered landscape.
Some exceptional photos of those frosty plants!
Wow! I love them all. This is my second blog seeing the beautiful frosted photos. Thanks for stopping by Behind the Gate for a visit.
My word. These are beautiful. LOVE, LOVE the water droplets. Hooray for macro lenses!!!

Stunning details in the images of the frost covered leaves and the tiny water droplets!
Happy MM
You did find a treasure trove in your garden, so lovely.
Delightful photos, so fitting to your quote too.
your wonderful macro shots definitely make this look like a spectacular fantasy land!
Lovely images Anna! Even though they are frosty, they are bright and cheery. Thanks for linking in!
So gorgeous and rich images. I like raindrops so much. Nice my eyes :)
Your frosted garden is delightful!
This is my first time here :) I've been viewing some of your photography and it's absolutely STUNNING! Love the frosty water droplets in these shots! So glad I surfed in here :)
Unreal, especially the water drops.
Now you've made me jealous of your frost tipped garden....so lovely!
i love how you captured the details... lovely!
Beautiful images of frost on that sparkles so beautifully.
Love the Wonderful frosty world you have captured, it's so magical!
To co "zobaczy" aparat fotograficzny przy przybliżeniu różnych obrazów, oko ludzkie nie widzi. Właśnie dlatego takie zdjęcia jak Twoje w tym poście, są śliczne.Pozdrawiam
I'm so envious! - in this part of the UK we don't get frost very often, it's usually just damp and grey. A heavy frost really does transform everything; these are lovely shots.
Oh, I just love your photos. Macro photography allows us the opportunity to see the small, miniature side of your lives.
So glad you were blessed with just the right light, at just the right time.
Thanks for sharing.
Soooo beautiful. Visiting you from MM and am so happy to have found your blog-it's lovely.
That quote from AR is great...so true.
Gorgous photos!!! Beautiful.
Wow!!! these macros are just magnificent! Gorgeous work! You've captured the light perfectly! Thanks for linking up today over with the muses!
Very beautiful, Anna – a fitting tribute to frosty autumn! And yes, the best part is going inside and warming up with a hot drink. :) It's about as gloomy as possible here today – November is usually our wettest month. Thinking of spring already. hugs xo – g
