Chill In The Air

I think today was the coldest morning of the year so far. I believe we hit a low of 23' in my area. I grabbed a quick shot of this little frosted weed sitting along the one back road I travel on my way to work. The entire field was frost covered. At the time the lighting wasn't the best or I would have tried to capture the entire open, frost covered field. I'm afraid there is no more denying the fact that Winter is here. Ok, Ok, I am willing to accept the fact that it is going to be cold, but I am not ready to say, "Let It Snow"

Gorgeous, Rick! I love the look of a fresh morning frost, but I'm never out and about early enough to catch it.

That's so gorgeous! We had a chilly night last night - and for December in Australia, that's unusual! :D
