Frosted inflorescences of a Blue Vervain, each old flower spike reminiscent of a candle or maybe thick incense stick. In the background, the straw color of dead vegetation, the bright white of snow and the light blue of the sky blur together.
Closeup of goldenrod seeds, the fluffy tufts crowned with ice crystals.
White frost outlining a bunch of Switchgrass - revealing its large panicles and making them look rather substantial. Despite being a tall grass with huge inflorescences, it is also very delicate and therefore easy to miss amongst other tall vegetation.
