This was a unique exposure for me. I was out wandering a golf course on the outskirts of town during a frost warning night. I did a long exposure with the illumination of the city lights giving this a unique look. Nothing photoshopped or added here.

It almost looks like one of those analog infrared photos. Very cool!

Love this photo! I’d encourage you to experiment with a tighter crop to possibly make the image more powerful. How would it look to horizontally crop 40-50 of the snow in the foreground? And/or take a bit more from the vertical margins? Just some ideas. And you may very well have the perfect crop right there!

For those out of the loop this effect is called “hoar frost” pronounced exactly like you would think and yes, it’s hilarious every time.

My spouse and I make sure to mispronounce it like Frank in Always Sunny.

Technically called "rime ice" when caused by foggy conditions. Hoar frost is from extreme cold temps on clear nights. I just learnt this yesterday I am no ice expert lol

The hoarfrost has been fantastic this year in Alberta, not surprised it looks great there too

I wish my area would finally get snow. Usually in January we have a few feet of accumulation. It's currently 35F and raining 😩

Definitely a good week for frost here in Saskatchewan

I'm from Saskatoon and I've been admiring the frosty trees this year, as well.

I live in the northern mountains of Colorado and there will be many mornings that every single tree looks just like this. That crystal white. Of all the winter beauty, this is my favorite. My commute is relatively long, but absolutely beautiful and it looks like this about 50% of the time. Gorgeous!

I'd love to buy this as a print... any chance you wanna sell or provide a larger resolution?
