A close-up view of an icicle hanging from an iron fence against a snowy background. A reflection of the fence is barely visible in the water droplet at the very tip of the ice.

This black-and-white photograph captures an intricate, abstract pattern of frost or ice crystals on a leaves. The composition is highly textured, with sharp contrasts between light and shadow, emphasizing the delicate, lace-like structure of the ice. The framing is tight, focusing on the micro-details, which creates a sense of depth and complexity. The play of light enhances the three-dimensionality of the frost, making it appear almost sculptural. The high contrast and monochromatic palette evoke a sense of timelessness and serenity.

Dieses Schwarz-WeiรŸ-Foto zeigt ein komplexes, abstraktes Muster aus Frost- oder Eiskristallen auf Blรคttern. Die Komposition ist stark texturiert, mit scharfen Kontrasten zwischen Licht und Schatten, die die zarte, spitzenartige Struktur des Eises betonen. Die enge Rahmung konzentriert sich auf die Mikro-Details, was Tiefe und Komplexitรคt schafft. Das Lichtspiel verstรคrkt die Dreidimensionalitรคt des Frostes und lรคsst ihn fast skulptural wirken. Der hohe Kontrast und die monochrome Farbpalette vermitteln ein Gefรผhl von Zeitlosigkeit und Ruhe

a black and white, close-up photograph of a daisy flower. the image features a sharp focus on the central disc florets and the surrounding ray florets (petals), which are rendered in bright white tones. the petals appear delicate and some show a slight curl at the edges. the background is dark and softly blurred.

It is cold and freezing in Colorado. An abstract picture of ice forming on a glass window up close. In this horizontal black and white photograph you see ice forming and branching out over glass. The background is dark. The ice is gray to white and is forming tree like structures in all directions. Controlled chaos.

I shall pass
through this
life but once.
Any good
therefore that
I can do,
or any kindness
I can show,
let me do it now.
Let me not defer
or neglect it.
For I shall
never pass this
way again.

A white rose glows in balck and white. The diamond grains of dew shine and sparkle in the sun light,

Poem by Dylan Thoams titled "Clown in the Moon"

My tears are like the quiet drift
Of petals from some magic rose;
And all my grief flows from the rift
Of unremembered skies and snows.

I think, that if I touched the earth,
It would crumble;
It is so sad and beautiful,
So tremulously like a dream.
