Fairy Land

The past two evenings created some beautiful scenes.  As I drove in to work in the morning, the trees along the roadside were coated in sparkling crystals.

The thick fog enveloped the branches, leaving them with a thick coat of hoar frost.  It appeared thickest on the trees closest to the lake.

The addition of the hoar frost to the landscape, created a scene that looked surreal; almost fairy-like.  The branches reminded me of dainty, frayed threads.  

I was sure to slow down and take in the beauty along the roadside because I knew as soon as the sun came up, the crystals would be gone and my frosty fairy-land would be no more.
