Frost

Skim ice on a puddle, photographed on Hampstead Heath this morning. Which was the first properly frosty morning of this otherwise temperate and often rather wet New Year, here in London. We should enjoy these traditional winter days while we can, I suppose. The last decade was the warmest on record, and the past five years were the hottest in the 170-year series dating back to 1850. Which might explain why crocuses and miniature narcissi are already abloom, in my garden.
