Wow, that is pretty. Too bad it couldn't be worn.

It reminds me of a narrative from my favorite comic strip "Calvin and Hobbes" when Calvin is presenting his show-and-tell for school: "I placed in this box a beautiful snowflake, unique from any other. But now it has melted into an ordinary drop of water. While the analogy sinks in, I will be leaving you drips to go play outside." (...or something similar...) :-D

GREAT macro, Si, looks like someone dipped the leaves in kosher salt!

Still so green for being so cold. Great capture. I'll take two earrings made from the center leaf please. ;)

Thank you, Luke, Alexis and BJ. We don't really get cold weather here in Cornwall - it rarely goes more than a degree or two below freezing, but that's just enough to make the early mornings crisp and interesting :-)

Excellent! The contrast of the white frost crystals and green leaves is really nice and I like the dark background which does not get in the way of the details.

Aww, the broken leaf is so sad. :-( But this picture is fantastic!

Excellent, Simon. Did you use some filter?
Happy new year :-)

Those are some super pretty leaves. Good job.

Wow, beautiful photo the leaves look so pretty. Thanks for sharing.
