My son has always seen frost on TV or out the car window, but he has never had a chance to play in it and feel it. Yesterday morning there was the first frost here in Badplaas. He was terribly excited when I showed him and asked if he could go and feel it. I don’t think he realised just HOW cold it would be when I told him it is very cold.
I struggled to decide which photos to show you as they each tell a different side of what he experienced, so here are many photos.
The realisation dawns that this is actually VERY cold
But the urge to feel it cannot be resisted
Ice on a piece of bark
Trying to warm up in a patch of sun
Making footprints in the frost
This was Garfield’s first experience of frost too – he didn’t seem to mind at all
Ice Crystals perfectly formed on a piece of wood
Ice on his shoes from running around
Teasing me that he would lie down and roll down the hill
a hre
He eventually settled for running down the hill
Great shots! the 3rd one is my favorite
Beautiful collection. I love the last one the best… beautiful sunflare!
We’re experiencing such a heat wave, these shots are SO WELCOME! Great captures!
Love the footprints in the frost! Great set!
Love the last two!
It looks like your son had a great time playing in the frost. Beautiful shots of the ice crystals.
Awesome pictures!
Beautiful photos! Particularly love the one with the footprints…
Love the footprints!
Beautiful photos and it looks very cold. You did a great job capturing the ice like this
Oh WOW!! It looks awesome! I love the crystals on the wood photo. So so beautiful!
But yes, you’re right, I’m DEFINITELY going to be packing a WHOLE bunch of warm things, and a water bottle or two (the warm kind) for our visit!
