2009 hasn’t been the best year for me in the photographic sense – Possibly since I’ve spent a good portion of my free time in the studio working on music and art. I think that may account for my complete lapse in judgment when I decided to leave my camera at home while heading out to Idaho for a Christmas break vacation. I realized the errors of my thinking when I finally found the hexagonal Hoar frost I’ve been itching to see for over a year now since my friend Christian showed me some photos he took of these amazing geometric frost patterns. Luckily Bill lent me his Nikon and I was able to salvage the situation (though If I had my macro lens I know these photos would be phenomenal) I’ll consider this a lesson learned.
