Frosted Fire ...

“It is the life of the crystal,

the architect of the flake,

the soul of the sunbeam,

This crisp winter air is full of it.”

       ~ John Burroughs

         ~ 1837-1921

         ~ “Winter Sunshine”

            ~ 1875

The pink hues of a winter’s cotton candy sunset dance among the ice floes in the Jordan Creek on an early February day at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.
