Snow Weed

It was the month of May, summer as we know it, but the high passes of the lateral route in Bhutan still had some ice left on the road side.

We did not have much time since we were on a vacation with a tight schedule !!

I did of course find the time to squeeze in some photographs. What especially caught my attention was how the delicate grass shoots had created their little spaces in the hard coarse ice. Being the only absorbers of the suns warmth and then radiating it to the surrounding areas these slender shoots were able to carve out their own little spaces.
