Beautiful image Robert and thanks for adding to my limited knowledge base. I had never heard of this phenomena until seeing your recent postings.

Excellent image of that frosty phenomenon, Robert. As much time as I've spent in the outdoors, I've only seen them twice, the first time about six years ago and again a couple years ago. Some of my shots of them on this page. http://www.pbase.com/richardr/nature_and_floral_scenics
Best regards,
