my little buddy jack
dropped by in the night!
i heard his spiky little paintbrush
scratching etching
on the bedroom window.
a tiny
triple zero
paintbrush
fractalizing
little water crystals
into spiked ferns -
splendiferizing the view!
hey, nice work jack!

Indeed!
A true artist is Mr. Frost.
Jack's brother, Robert, is one of my favorite poets!
Jack is quite the ice sculptor!
Perfect - and so well observed, Steven.
Nice one steven! I like "splendiferizing"
Nice work, Jack indeed. These etchings are amazing. A blade on the glass, crystal cut. Forests in the ice.
Those pictures are fascinating.
Brilliant. For me one of the upsides of the recent cold spell was just exactly the sort of wonder you depict here. I had almost forgotten the spell they used to weave in my childhood. This year even double-glazing an d central heating couldn't keep them at bay.
I am such a dork! At first I thought, "Who's Jack?" DUH!!! Maybe it is because I have never see his work in person. :)
Those are amazing photos!
There is nothing more beautiful than Jack Frost at his work Stevn - we should make the most of the next few weeks because soon he will be gone for another year.
there's so much beauty in the delicate tracery the gentle fingers of Jack Frost magic on to a window.
You have captured it beautifully.
Beautiful! The very tiny, delicate snowflakes falling add to the charm of Jack's work.
again the beauty in nature is astounding...its frosty here tonight too...jack is busy worldwide!!
Love the detail - they do so look like ferns!
Splendiferizing indeed!
hey thanks everyone - jack's work is fascinating to me - first because it appears so unecpectedly and randomly on the windows and secondly because it really is so beautiful!!! i'm sorry i can't respond to each comment today but i'm overloaded with a number of personal and professional tasks and so i'll clear them away tonight and be back at this the way i like to be tomorrow!!! thanks very much for visiting and leaving such thoughtful and generous comments my friends!!! steven
Stephen, I enjoyed your photos so much. This kind of frost is something I've rarely seen as it's just not quite cold enough in Victoria (or of course in Mazatlan!)
