Frosty/Snowy/Icy Photos

We had minus 8 last night and it is minus 6.8 at the moment. I have just been out and taken loads of pics - I mean loads. As I can safely be called an amateur when it comes to taking photo's I always take more than I want in the hope that I get a couple that are decent. This time more than the usual amount have turned out reasonable so from over twenty I have reduced them to 11 - hope you don't get bored.

Gorgeous pics RF. Like NO I love the frosted trees. Beautiful!

[Weeterrier]

I agree, the frosted trees are like something from a fairytale.

[Ruthie]

And I agree too!!! Who wouldn't? We haven't had a blue skt like that for a day or 2.

Lovely Owdboggy! The Ivy flowers look almost ghostly> Mine are just wet now, 'cos it's raining in Norfolk!!!

[owdboggy]

Took them last week, but we have got frost now, though the fog is making things wet rather than white!

Took this at 11.30am today - it is still very cold and we had a lot of mist - here is the tail end of it swirling over the field at the back of my house - the sun was right in my eyes so not a very good photo really ; the mist was swirling quite fast and looked really scary - in the background is the railway line and a train had just gone by making the mist swirl upwards - awesome sight

Very frosty here in South Yorks this morning, been out in the garden

Cyclamen



Verbena Bonarinses



Fuschia

RF those trees really are something else, amazing. OB yours are great,such clear crisp photo's and such fab detail. JW thats a dream of a photo too with that mist and light. KL Lovely frosty pics, doesn't the ground look strange when it's frozen hard. I spy some good looking brussels in the background there

Unfortunately I left it a bit late today to get the frosted effect so have gone for the dripping thaw instead

[JennyWrenn]

I love the last photo Chuckles; I had some curtains with that same flower on some years ago

Here is a photo I posted a while ago and bringing it into this thread - I called it Mother Nature's Decorations

[owdboggy]

Got some more frost ones today.

[Weeterrier]

Fabulous photos..........frost, thaw, doesn't matter. there really are some crackers on this page, wouldn't like to choose a favourite. ;D

[Ladygardener]

Those are all fantastic photos, ODB I especially like the cottenester berries ;D

[Ruthie]

Hope you don't think this is cheating but I've managed to scan some old, pre digital photos onto the PC and downloaded them to photobucket. These were taken 29th Feb 2004......nearly 4 years ago!! The last decent snow we had here.

Get your cameras primed because they say we've got some coming over the W/E.

Great photos everyone.I love frosty pics everything looks like its sugar coated.
I have moved my photos about in photobucket and lost 2 of my pics.
I am a devil at doing that i must remember not to do it in future after iv posted some photos.

Snowowl, there is a way of moving them without breaking the link in GWD posts. When I get a mo I'll type it up and tell you. It's useful if you suddenly realise that you've put a pic in the wrong album and then you realise you've posted it on GWD so can't move it or you break the link.

I'll sort it and let you know how to do it, too late tonight and I've had far to much of the Red stuff ;D and it's late.

OK I'll do a quicky.

Left click on the Direct link code of the said photo.
Go to the Album you want to put it in and select the WEB URL tab.
Paste the Direct Link code into the usual window, next to the Browse button and then click UPLOAD
Now go back to the wrong Album and delete the photo

Job done, you're photo is now in the correct album and your link still works in GWD

[JennyWrenn]

Wonderful photos SR I dont think I have seen snow like that round here for ages
They would make lovely pictures for your home or your Christmas card

[snowowl]

Thanks Chuckles im not sure thats all sunk in but i will experiment.
Im not that good on the computer.
Everything iv managed so far is self taught with the help from folks on here and my son.
But he is so busy now i have to fathem things out on my own.
I will give it a go though cant promise it will work ;D

Hi Karlslass - not problem - the smilie is with the others - sandwiched at the moment between everyday smilies and the ones for New Year.
