  7. That is particularly fascinating frost. I thought it was fancy sugar on a fancy truffle, at first! Very nifty shot.

  13. Very beautiful, i can just scrape it for my shake! Frost is alien to us, and we go to snowparks just to feel how cold is cold, so we can relate to fellow humans living in your situations, haha!

  17. Hey, that looks really good!

    Father Christmas has looked more or less like that for a long, long time (old engravings show him just like that but with a darker red. So the brighter red is probably imported from Coca Cola land).

  23. That's exactly what Jack Frost's girlfriend said. That's not, however, what Robert Frost's girlfriend said. She was mad 'cause he lost his warmth!

    Seriously, I do like the frost on the nut.

    Have a great day!
