This leaf has been frozen in time, at least until the ice melts.

Sorry to hear about you being stuck out inthe cold, I hopeyour legs have recovered!!! I love this leaf in the ice btw, at first I thought it was a splash of water over it - really awesome!!!

very nice leafcicle Miss Mary ..... I see you had a carreer as a Cat Burgular ! I would have paid cash money to see that ! LOL .... Maybe you could recreate this image for us and put your camera on self timer and show us all your skills ;o)
Hope your legs feel better soon !

Wow Mary! At first glance it seems such a beautiful simple shot, until you delve deeper into all those tiny particles of ice. Stunning. Love the colours too. :)

Sweet shot Mary, is it already that cold in Staffordshire?

@DaveB: It was the night before last Dave, we woke to a heavy frost, I was really suprised to see ice, my hubby had to scrape the car windows too, this was in a metal dish I keep water in for the birds. it's warmed up a little thank goodness, or the rain that we have today would be snow!
Wauw Awesome.

Oh that's stunning...my first thought was: 'Mon pays, ce n'est pas mon pays, c'est l'hiver' A Canadian folk song "My country, isn't my country, it's winter' Maple leaf being our emblem...well there is a sequitur there ;)

Wow, this is wonderful. I'm feeling a bit envious of my counterparts who live in winterland places; such opportunities for fantastic shots like this one. Great work, Mary!

Me too!! This would/should be printed 'BIG' (well maybe not too big), and hung in your gallery...It is a very special capture. Creativity is a real thing with you I see.. Do you have your keys?? LOL
