Thank you Luc.  Got the pics and they're breathtaking.  AMAZING!!!!!!! :o

Razvan,

That is a lot of ice sitting on such a fine stem.  You wonder how it can hold so much.

Cliff,

Nice white peacock pic.  They're so cool.  8)

I only recall one freezing fog event here and that was within the past 2 years.  I think it's not uncommon in eastern Newfoundland.

What a resemblance! But the fungus lasted only a couple of days. . . .

Pretty cold it looks! Glad that kind of weather is very rare here but I have often seen it in other parts of Norway.
