FROZEN BEAUTY

in #nature7 years ago

A bit of an ice storm in Springfield, MO right now.


We were up visiting some friends today, and suddenly it started to sleet and hail outside. Some of the @little-peppers considered trying to play out there, but it was too cold and wet.

Once the sleet and hail and rain stopped, I grabbed the camera to try to capture a few interesting shots of the frozen rain on the plants and flowers outside. Here are a few of my favorite clicks.

Hey, I'm also from Springfield!! I thought mother nature was playing a cruel April Fool's joke when I saw the forecast for today... Just when you think spring is finally here, BAM!!

Cool! Nice to meet you and welcome to steemit.

Thanks! I still have a lot to learn, but it's been fun so far. 😊

Crazy weather over there.
Hope you guys are safe and have a wonderful April.
Weather will get better I guess, warmer?
Keep on steemin'

Beautiful photos. I'm blessed. Playing golf and it will be 84 today.

You sure know your way around the camera. Lovely shot. Thumbs Up

I'm trying! Thanks man!

Anytime mate

really unfortunate. the beauty of the hail causes some bad foot against the beauty of the others. this is an unavoidable law of nature. interesting post @papa-pepper

Wonderful,, papa ,,, this is very impressive ,,, i love the character of photos like this ,,, very beautiful and fresh ,,,

That's got to be disruptive to the plants that have already started to grow. It's strange when Spring seems to have come for good, then more snow. The weather can be so predictable.

great photos, I will not stop to admire your work, your work is very interesting to follow. however your natural condition remains the best @papa-pepper

I know the feeling, we got a foot of snow on the first day of spring! LOL

That camera of yours is taking real nice clear pictures. Is that a special lens for the close-ups?

It is, some sort of macro lens suggested by @winstonwolfe.

CANON EF-S 60mm

Nice macroes, I really like the way you caught the frozen water on the branches.
Spring is hiding all over the world it seems, we just had 10 cm of snow last night in Denmark and minus degrees today O.o
Hopefully spring will come soon..

Nice photoshoot papa i really like the way you snap the frozen water on the branches.
Rain is good for healthy plant. Happy Easter papa

Make for beautiful photography...hard on the plants. We just got more snow apparently - i’m not looking forward to going back to that after spending 2 weeks walking around with a tshirt.

Happy Easter my friend!!
Let me know the date when you will be here.
I have informed the others.

Amazing shots as always @papa-pepper everything has its own purpose water-drop make the shot amazing as well.. here it's very warm ... Always Sunning hopeful rainfall will knock soon.. Appreciate your support. Thanks.

this seems so cool @papa-pepper.
the water is frozen.
whether the plant will not die in a place like this....

Nice shots of the ice storm. I think ole man winter is headed our way again in a day to two.

Yeah, stay warm out there!

Great photographs... the frozen drops are really nice... too bad for the flowers though!
