Gorgeous! Makes me really want to get a macro lens for my camera! Sadly, we hardly ever get such picturesque frosts around here :-(
Beautiful pictures! We're not so fond of that "F" word in these parts but do share your love of bamboo!
Stunning! How cold was it when you took these photos?
I, too, have been longing for a macro lens. Maybe this will be my year! Nature up close is so interesting to document.
Gerhard: I think it was 22ºF (-5ºC) or so.
For those yearning for a macro lens, it's the lens I use most now. Mine is an *old* manual one (no autofocus) and if you don't mind focusing by hand, it's a cheap way to get a macro. Also, the point-and-shoot cameras have pretty decent macro capabilities.
You teamed up with Jack Frost to splendid effect!
Absolutely gorgeous! Great pictures! Even frosty bamboo is beautiful!
