5 in 5 - December 2016 - Jack Frost

    Welcome to '5 in 5' where on the 5th of

each month I post 5 photos that I have

taken in 5 minutes.

And November flashes past into December.... and with it the buzz of Christmas and excitement begins. I am trying to get into the festive spirit and have just got the decorations down from the loft. I was going to take photos but there is not time to unpack so as an after thought I'll save those for another day. And I will go back to my original plan, because a visit to the museum the other day made me stop and reach for my camera.

At 10am the frost was still thick. The cold has only reached us recently and we notice the change, but I'm not complaining. We have been blessed to have a summer that seemed to go on and on, and a splendid autumn that was rich in colour and warm days. So with camera in hand I took photos as we walked across the lawn:

A good frost with blue skies is a start to a good day, and I hope where ever you are that the weather is being kind and gentle. I will be back with another post before Christmas, so enjoy your own preparations and festivities. I have two Christmas meals next week and other good things planned. December is looking good so far...
