Oh oh! Don't blame me dear, but one my incoming posts (in the weeks to come) will include a picture wich is a clone of this one... I don't want to copy your work!... The differences will be that mine goes on the right. (I have to admit also, that yours has better light and details... Sic...) Magnificent macro...

Ice is as different in grain as silica is from decomposed granite sand. The difference in coating is that ice is on plants and sand on animals.

hmmmm...what do we have here? it looks like a snow covered flower! very icy for sure!!! well maybe it's just a very hearty plant or grass of some kind. whatever it is, i automatically like it because it's tough and resilient!! you really capture ice and snow quite well, and i'm very impressed!!! beautiful work!! splat Don't look so surprised, Jan-Carel! I've really been quite the good girl for weeks and now and it hasn't been easy to resist throwing one at you with all these winter scenes you keep showing. and i know if Cindy was here and not in Denver, she'd be throwing one at you too!!! splat...uh...that one's in Cindy's honor!!! hehe!!

Such a clear, well defined closeup of the ice crystal field and a flower(?), Jan-Carel. Each crystal different - God's fractals! Thanks for this one. Regards, John.
