Forest of Hoar by kph129

Forest of Hoar

Eerie Halloween fog resulted in pretty frosty trees. I heart hoar frost, so hopefully I'll find lots of good opportunities to photograph it this winter.

For the Get Pushed challenge, Donna asked me "to do a black and white landscape (preferably shot/composed in b&w as opposed to post-processed)". I've been housebound for most of this week, so my neighbour's tree is as close as I've come to a landscape so far!

A more colourful take on today's hoar frost:

I agree with Edie - when it's blown up, it does look like a beautiful piece of modernist art!
