Beautiful red leaves covered (outer only) in layers and layers of frost causing a wonderfully intricate step effect.  Looks like tons of crystals mostly in a cube shape

Church surrounded by frosty trees and in the fog

Church surrounded by frosty trees and in the fog

Wooded area, covered in loads of frost but with the odd hint of green from the occasional ivy growing up the trees.  Look an enticing path into the fog

Photo of a frozen canal on a foggy winter morning. The view is from the top of a small stone-arch, cobbled bridge with knee high parapets providing leading lines down to the frosty towpath below. Three narrowboats can be seen moored next to the towpath. Leafless trees are softened by the fog, which is beginning to be burned off by a low sun that is bright but not blinding.

Foggy morning on a frozen Trent & Mersey, viewed from a 250-year-old and somewhat precarious to negotiate bridge.

New generation #biofuels are the best way to reduce emissions from boats. Together with the #RYA, #BritishMarine and the #CruisingAssociation we're asking boaters to respond to a Govt call for evidence & make them more available. Find out how to respond: www.theca.org.uk/hvo-for-boats

Photo of a frozen canal captured from an elevated position on a cold winter day. The canal itself is iced up and curls slightly to the right into the distance. A frosty towpath lines the left bank. To the right, several green narrowboats are moored nose out into the canal, their rooves a frosty white. Behind them in the middle distance a few wharf buildings in brick and sheet metal mingle with leafless trees.

Top of the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal, a view that is in its essentials some 250 years old, though the leisure boats moored at the wharf belong to a 20th-century reincarnation.

Night into day, although the temperature hasn't changed much. Despite my best-laid plans and a pressing need to visit a bin shed, I don't think anyone's going anywhere today…

A stretch of water washes the middle distance, the colour of aubergine. Hummocks of sedge and die-back thistle silhouette the foreground. The polestar oak stands proudly centre left, lifting winter branches to a sky of blood-orange and peach, and gunmetal blue.

Frost fire grips hard.
Sheep breathe dragon smoke
The polestar oak,
As always, affirms our path.

Kemi Badenoch's Refusal to Distance Herself From Elon Musk is an Act of Moral Cowardice The Conservative Party leader's refusal to criticise the X owner's dangerous misinformation campaign against the UK should exclude her from ever returning to high office

Ann Telnaes, a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist at The Washington Post, says her cartoon below was killed by Jeff Bezos, the paper’s owner. Bezos didn’t want the cartoon to become public because it shows him kneeling before Donald Trump.

You know what to do.
