Morning Jewels

Winter at last! 
Well, a frosty, foggy hour or two at the beginning of the day. I'd been hoping that the sun would break through the fog, as promised on the weather forecast, but it took longer than they said and didn't produce the effect I'd been hoping for. But like Mr Jagger says "You cain't always get what y' want.........but if you try sometimes, you get what y' need".."  

 dew on a spider's web


bramble leaves


 grass under ice

 hawthorn stump


 more bramble leaves


 frosty grasses


new shoots


blue skies
(no, not really! Just a web on my blue rubbish bin)


Take care.

  7. Beautiful photos! That hawthorn stump is a work of art! I'd love to have that in the house as a little table or something!

    The thick fog lingered here until the middle of the day, then the sun came out for about an hour before it turned cold and grey again!
