The hardest frost yet this winter struck last night; when I came to the car this morning, the windscreen was a fantasy of organic leaves and waves. My photos are nothing special, but I just had to share the astounding organic etchings of the frost here. In the lower part of the pictures there’s a glow from the light of the low, rising winter sun.
My mind is filled with pictures of Japanese stylised waves, detailed pre-Raphaelite florals and acanthus leaves, feather and pounding waterfalls… let’s just glory in nature’s beauty at work again.
Feeling inspired?
Stuff and Nonsense 
Leonardo once suggested finding inspiration in the dirt on walls and the patterns on stones. This really does look like leaves and waterfalls. 🙂

Haha, thought these pictures might be right up your street! I hadn’t heard that about Leonardo, but it figures. He knew how to look. 🙂
