Foreground: The branch is centered in the frame, adorned with large crystals of frost, giving it a fluffy, icy appearance. Background: Other trees with dark bark and snow-covered branches stretching into the distance are visible in the background. The trunk of a large tree occupies the right side of the image. Surroundings: The ground is completely covered in snow. The sky is blue, suggesting a clear, frosty day. The overall atmosphere of the photograph is one of quiet, cold winter.
Good morning 🤗 Happy Monday to everyone! ❄️☀️
The photograph depicts a winter landscape, shot close-up, focusing on a tree branch thickly covered in frost. #MacroMonday #MacroHour #BlueSkyMonday #mobilephotography
Submerged in softness and shadow, this piece lives somewhere between reality and dream. I’m always drawn to surreal art, the kind that feels a little dreamy, a little soft, and slightly dark. The pieces that stir emotion even when they’re hard to explain. While I can’t paint or sketch, I love pushing my photography beyond the literal, experimenting with techniques that let me create images that feel more like a mood than a moment. I hope you feel something when you look at it. Flowers submerged in water with swirls of black and white paint.

This close-up photograph depicts frost patterns on glass, reminiscent of ferns or intricate ice crystals. The patterns have a complex, branched structure and are translucent white. Foreground: Detailed ice formations dominate, occupying most of the frame. Background: The background is blurred (bokeh effect), highlighting the texture and shape of the crystals. A snow-covered landscape is visible with dark silhouettes of trees and fuzzy outlines of buildings, one of which has an orange tint. Overall Atmosphere: The photograph conveys the atmosphere of a cold winter, the tranquility, and the natural beauty of the ice structures. The image shows frost patterns (hoarfrost flowers) on glass. They form when the glass begins cooling at positive temperatures and continues below freezing, causing a thin film of water to freeze into dendrites (tree-like structures). Another type of pattern, trichites, forms on the sharp edges of scratches, where the crystallization process occurs differently. These formations consist of frost deposits. Such patterns can be observed on glass, and frost flowers also often appear on loose soil or river ice along cracks.
Happy Friday! ❄️

Foto colorida feita por mim em 2020 na Serra da Mantiqueira. No centro uma mariposa de asas predominantemente amarelas com detalhes pretos, vermelhos e brancos. Na parte superior da mariposa essas mesmas cores parecem formar um rosto pintado de boca aberta. Ela está pousada sobre um pedaço de madeira clara com uma faixa mais escura na parte central.
