Sunday Snap: Glitter
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.”
~ J.R.R. Tolkien

How delicately the frost has encased each branch. You’ve captured the daintiness so clearly.

So pretty! We had a little of that this morning and some of it stayed throughout the day, so I could see the frozen tree branches in the bright sky all day from the window at work!
