The delicate and ephemeral frost flowers.

A foggy day in the Vosges in winter.

How tenderly the earth laughs when the snow awakens upon it!

"The flower burns under the frost and its petals sparkle in the tangle of branches like crystal embroidery."

The sun set tonight in the clouds. Tomorrow will come the storm, and the evening, and the night; Then dawn, and its clarity of obstructed vapors.... Excerpt from "Soleils couchants", poem VI, Les Feuilles d'automne (1831), Victor Hugo

Mushrooms on a tree trunk can be a sign of its weakening and are often a harbinger of its imminent death.
