forest of blue lakes of labium
held a meeting of union of skydivers
one lake of blue waves
of the forest of the blue lakes of labium
was full of frostflowers on its skin
frozen upon slow waves
of amassed drowned sadness
that had sealed many blue lips
now to be split by skates
dashing flowers apart

#FrostFlowerFriday The delicacy of these ribbons of ice is my favorite feature of winter. #photography #frostflowers #B&W #macro #winter #nature

Part of the fun of photographing #frostflowers is deciding how to take the shot -- so many sides and angles. They can look very different from different perspectives. For example, these two shots of one frost flower.

The #FrostFlowerFriday theme continues. Frost flowers have a number of names: frost faces, ice castles, ice blossoms, or the fancy one #crystallofolia. #photography #dittany #nature #frostflowers

It's #FrostFlowerFriday. I think this one looks like it is holding out its skirt for you to admire. #photography #plants #nature #winter #ice #frostflowers

Here's another frost flower. I cropped this photo a lot to show the streaky patterns in the icy ribbons. The cropping made the background grainy. The actual frost flower was only about 2 inches (5 cm) tall. #photography #frostflowers #nature

Frost flowers, a phenomenon that occurs this time of year for certain plants when there’s (1) freezing air and (2) moist but not frozen soil. Salvia coccinea photographed.

The first frost flowers that I've seen this season showed up in the woods yesterday. #photography #frostflowers #nature

First freeze created frost flowers - rare ice ribbons on plant stems that last hours before melting.

Need perfect conditions, disintegrate at touch. Found across Eastern U.S.

Each unique, gone for a year.

The Friday Digital Archive Dive is uncertain about frost flowers this year (drought, unseasonably warm) so is picking some from the many in the archive (see 1st ALT image for how they are formed).

Frost flowers! Sometimes, when conditions are just right, frost makes lovely patterns on our back door window. Short-lived, but beautiful!

Some quiet winter magic. ❄️ Frost flowers forming on Pluchea odorata—delicate, fleeting, and a reminder of nature’s artistry. #frostflowers #nature #winter

Some #FrostFlowers that had ambitions for greatness but ended laying down on the job.

It hasn't been the best winter (by far) for frost flowers but happily they haven't been completely absent either.
