Story:
The previous weekend it rained so we had a lot of humidity in the country zone. Early while having breakfast, I noticed that the grass lawn was white. I knew that most of the flowers would have micro droplets of the dew frozen by the below zero temperature.
This enabled me to have enough light without dark shades, in addition the micro ice would maintain its frozen condition.
I was using extension rings, that give you a very small depth of field.
There was slight breeze so I could only take one image at the time and could not do Focus Staking to solve the depth of field.
These are color images of our garden micro ice, that I converted to black and white.
