The iamge of this wonderful shrub has been from last evening. Here on leaves is not snow. It is a fog. The fog is so dense and tick that water drops just lie on leaves. These water drops look like snow because reflected the light.
We had long argued with Ann about fog's nature. The question of reflexion of light has appeared for me too difficult, and I have smoothly translated to conversation to beauty of natural phenomena!

"beauty of natural phenomena". Very good.
As a science teacher, I so often wonder at these beauties. The little water droplets in fog act like tiny prisms, break light up into its colors to make a spectacular display. Like in a rainbow. http://www.pa.uky.edu/~sciworks/light/preview/rainbo.htm
Wow! Thank! Now I much better understand it!
Anyone who want to know about break up the light, I recommended the above link from Si!
I try to explain it to Ann :)
