Brilliant blue sky provides a gorgeous backdrop for frost-coated trees after a severe winter storm in Wilmington, Illinois. The strong winds and frigid temperatures combined to create crystals on the branches that appear to be nearly horizontal.

Amazing, looking at this photo you can get a clear idea of the power of the wind during the storm. Thanks a lot for sharing, Barbara.
Hi Antonina: Yes, it’s the wind here that is the real problem in winter. I can stand the below zero temps pretty well, but when the wind whips up it’s just brutal. However, on the positive side, it give me photos like this one 🙂
