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.

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

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. 😊

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

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.
