This is not a sanity test, I promise.
Just play along.What does this look like. First thing that comes to your mind?
Laying under a group of huge snowy evergreen trees looking up to the sky, is that what you see? Or is it a peek between a few evergreen branches?
How about this one? 
Silver artificial Christmas tree?
Does this one below put a wintery scene with a bird flying away from a tall evergreen into your head?
That’s what I see when I look at these ice paintings Jack Frost put on my window.
What do you see?
Aren’t they beautiful?
Mother nature never ceases to amaze me.

Right back at you. I thought frost and ice crystals right off the bat. These are great images Teresa. Can’t wait until this beautiful frost melts for good, but while it’s here…

Hi Teresa~~ I saw a damask pattern. China or fabric. On second glance it looked like a vintage botanical pen and
ink. I am equally amazed at Mother Nature. These are way cool!

Cool (no pun intended) shots!
The first one reminded me of a black and white toile fabric, the silver tree was spot on!
The last reminds me of feathers.

On that first picture I was lying in some ferns we have here in Alaska which are giants and go up to 6 feet tall. I was lying there looking up at the sky. Yes I saw that bird too flying away from the evergreen tree. Nan

I thought ‘frost on a window’ right from the start – probably because our first house used to get frost inside in the winter, but those are gorgeous pictures! And I love your flights of fancy too!

Congratulations for having the cheapest art decors! It doesn’t lessen the awesomeness of nature at all.

You always find new patterns and forms whenever you see those lovely frostings

Beauty and artistry doesn’t have to come in full colour spectrum in Spring or Summer. There is beauty too in winter, black and white!! ~bangchik

Great frost photos! That first one definitely reminds me of looking up at the sky in the middle of the forest.

Love the first two images of frost – so beautiful!

Hello Teresa,
I love these photos! I couldn’t figure out from the first one, but by the second I had it figured out. Such beautiful frost photos :^)

Everything is a miracle! There is beauty everywhere if we are open to seeing it. Your photos are breathtaking. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your world!
