…In November???
Well, actually, it’s wild strawberry leaves, turned autumn red ruby and here festooned with the remnants of the morning’s frost:
I liked the way each of the leave’s tiny, hair-like spines had captured its own accumulation of atmospheric rime.
This was taken at about ten AM in the deep shade of a stand of firs, and the crystal structures were becoming indistinct as the day warmed. I bet it was really good a couple of hours earlier!
Thanks to Mary over at Work of the Poet for hosting this rubilicious meme. Go visit her for more rubiliciousness!
OMG that is an awesome shot!! I love the 3 colors together, white, red and green.

Wild – that’s just natural? My strawberry leaves are still green. I’ll keep looking.
Nice shot, and good eyes for noticing it!

What a cool shot! Very unique. Does seem a bit frosty for November. Hope it’s not going to be another winter like the last one.
wow!

the ice droplets are so pretty, nature’s sugar coating
love the frost resembles sugar
Fabulous!
You’re all very nice. 🙂
Yes, it was cool to find these (many) frosted strawberry leaves amongst the moss. I kicked myself for not finding them earlier in the day, but then, I was working, and wandering around in the scrub with a camera isn’t part of my job description.
So I got what I got, and I’m glad you liked it.
😉
where do you find these fascinating plants?
So lovely. It would make a good valentine. I hope you’re having a restful Thanksgiving weekend.
Love,
Gina
