 When it is bitterly cold out, at times our storm doors will have these neat looking ice patterns on them.  This one was very different than usual.  I think it was due to the thawing that occurred during the day and then the re-freezing at night.  The patterns reminded my of little suns with the re-frozen water drop in the middle and then the fern like ice radiating out from that.  There was a bit of photo shopping involved because I overlaid the ice image on an orangy background and then blended the 2 layers.  The color brought out the patterns more and I thought it appropriate due to the "sun" type patterns.
