Blue Morning, Blue Frost

Have you ever had an urge to stick your tongue on a frosted pipe?

  1. I’m disappointed in myself for having to google The Enterprise (I was focusing on the other cloud).

    The blue ice pics are all gorgeous!

    I think I’ve only encountered frozen poles/pipes in businesses. In the wild.. yes, A Christmas Story makes me curious about the pain… so long as there’s warm water nearby to help unstick!

    • The Enterprise’s number is not something you normally have at the tip of your tongue. Speaking of needing something warm to get your tongue off a frosted pole, here’s a story for you. I don’t know if this is true, but I read about a guy and his girlfriend who were stuck in an icy traffic jam. The girl needed to pee badly, so her boyfriend suggested she open both doors and squat between the open doors. So she did, but she squatted too close to the car, and her butt stuck to the icy metal of the rocker panel. Her boyfriend peed on her to get her unstuck. Thanks, Leenda.

  2. We are surrounded by humid misty grey outside around here, so it makes me happier to see your amazing colours now!

  3. Dear Timothy
    We like your blue frost pictures. Unfortunately, we haven’t had any frost here this autumn until now.
    Enjoy the winter

  4. These are wonderful photos, Tim. I particularly like the blue ice puddle.

    I think it might have gotten to the freezing point here last night. However, three different weather outlets gave three wildly different reports… stating the temperature at 7:30 AM as anywhere from 28 to 41 degrees. That happens a lot. Have a good new week. Hugs.

    • You need your own outdoor thermometer. The whether widgets rarely get it right for us. Thanks, Teagan.

  5. I love all these photos, Tim. The sheer beauty you find and capture is food for the soul. Your “Blue ice in abstractia” and icy leaf are my favorites in this set. The icy leaf one brought to mind Kirlian photography.

    So Spunk and Marble are getting used to Jake, just a little?

    • Thanks, Lavinia. Spunk and Marble are missing meals because of him anymore. But they still don’t like him.
