VIEW IN MY ROOM
This is a group of blades of grass and old iris stems completely covered in ice crystals. Several years ago, we had a very cold spell following a wet period. Each night the moisture in the damp air would condense into tiny crystals as the night air became much colder, and coat every surface. I have seen small crystals many times, but this was a very long cold spell, lasting many days without warming above freezing. So, the crystals did not melt during the day, and grew longer each night. These 2 inch long ice crystals formed over a period of about 4 days. We call this "Hoar frost". On the day I took this photo, the weather broke and the ice began to melt and all of the beautiful hoar frost crystals were gone within an hour after the day warmed above freezing. This event happened in El Cap Meadow in Yosemite Valley.
