We haven’t gotten freezing temperatures yet here in Gig Harbor, but I almost wish we would just so I can get a shot like this.
Ice and snow have such different and unique patterns in them – they’re beautiful
December 14th, 2011 @ 7:32 pm
Frost feathers! Stunning.
December 14th, 2011 @ 7:41 pm
This is beautiful. I grew up in foggy San Francisco so I never experienced the wonders of freezing temperatures.
December 14th, 2011 @ 8:01 pm
Wow, how pretty!!! :)
December 14th, 2011 @ 8:40 pm
Whoa, this is amazing! And such a fantastic photo of it!
December 14th, 2011 @ 9:50 pm
In Nevada we call this “pogonip.”
December 15th, 2011 @ 7:01 am
“Nice-Shot” Here in the desert we do get ice / freezing temps….. but nothing like what you get. Stay Well (Salud)
December 15th, 2011 @ 7:39 am
what a BEAUTIFUL picture. i LOVE it.
December 15th, 2011 @ 8:15 am
Awe, Horfrost always reminds me of my Nana, she used to love it
December 15th, 2011 @ 8:43 am
This is hoarfrost. Makes everything look feathery.
December 15th, 2011 @ 9:24 am
The one thing I love about digital cameras is that I can take super close ups of frost, the configurations is mind blowing. It’s like temporary rock crystals which I also find intriguing.
December 15th, 2011 @ 10:09 am
i never would have imagined fog freezing. can’t believe i never thought of that.
stunningly beautiful…
December 15th, 2011 @ 10:15 am
I really love it when the ice encases the tree branches. They look like glass.
December 15th, 2011 @ 10:44 am
I love this photo. It is exquisitely beautiful. You have such a gift, Shreve!
December 15th, 2011 @ 10:44 am
And thanks so much for sharing it with us :)
December 15th, 2011 @ 10:46 am
What an awesome picture!
December 15th, 2011 @ 11:29 am
Beautiful! I haven’t seen freezing fog since I left Colorado Springs almost 5 years ago. Thanks for bringing back some happy memories!
December 15th, 2011 @ 1:09 pm
i have a six year old friend who saw hoarfrost for the first time yesterday. he said “look! it looks like everything is covered with butterflies!”
December 15th, 2011 @ 2:12 pm
Ahh, lovely. Thanks for posting that, Shreve.
@bonnie: what a wonderful turn of phrase! I will flatter your young friend by stealing it for a poem! ;)
December 15th, 2011 @ 3:04 pm
What a fabulous photo Shreve. Just as well your bloomers weren’t pegged to the line !!!
December 15th, 2011 @ 3:14 pm
What exquisite, featherlike detail! We don’t get freezing weather but once a decade or so in the San Francisco Bay Area.
December 15th, 2011 @ 4:34 pm
Gorgeous. Makes my southern bones shiver.
December 15th, 2011 @ 9:25 pm
The first thing that came to mind was the Native American Thunderbird, speaking of feathers. Such powerful imagery from a humble clothes pin in winter.
December 15th, 2011 @ 11:33 pm
Like Hummingbird feathers!
December 16th, 2011 @ 1:13 am
Exquisite photo, Shreve.
December 16th, 2011 @ 8:23 am
frosty miniature christmas trees, ah….

Start a chargeback with your payment processor. Forget about trying to deal with the company–they’re professional cheats and they’ve been doing this for years. Their plan is to string you out long enough that payment processors won’t even initiate a chargeback due to the time lapse.

i have never seen anything even close to the joke they send me as a “research paper”. i am new yorker from europe and for couple precious minutes, while trying to decode this enigma product, i was seriously concerned that something happened to my long acquired english skills. but not, even though not great they are still sufficient enough to comprehensive reading and survive in this new-age-business-jungle. lucky me i ordered only one masterpiece from 3 i was planning to. i can almost feel like a winner, or at least a little bit less of a loser ($66 of my hard made money) after using pwerer.
to be continued…
@pheelyks – thx a lot i’m in the middle of the process

All the customers have an opportunity to request their money back if they believe the quality is not up to par as soon as the paper is delivered.
Both options are part of our MoneyBack guarantee* that you accepted upon placing the order.
At the moment a full refund is only issued when you provide your own version of the paper. It will serve as evidence that our writer’s work did not meet any of your expectations.
The paper you provide will be discarded immediately after our review and will not be stored in our internal database or shared with any third party.
As of today you still haven’t requested a refund in order 2534316 .
Please choose one of the options suggested so that we could review your claim.

Which is complete and utter bullsh*t. If the customer received a paper that is copy/pasted from websites and full of glaring errors in grammar, word usage, etc., then you failed to deliver what they ordered and they are entitled to a refund.
Enough chargebacks and you’ll lose yet another payment processing account.

Sad to see you remained just as rude and aggressive, Daniel.
If there is any trace of plagiarism in the paper we will proceed with the refund as soon as the customer points to it. We do have anti-plagiarism software and plagiarism is almost impossible.
You can read more about it here: http://www.pwerer/no_plagiarism_guarantee.html .
In this particular case the customer did not request a dispute yet, as soon as they list their problems with the paper we will be ready to make an appropriate refund.

Sad to see you still cheat customers and writers in the same way, fucktard.
Gabriel:

According to the customer, your site is set up so that they can’t start a dispute requesting a full refund.
You work for a crook. You help him do crooked things. You are fully aware of this. I’m sorry you live in such a sh*tty country where the only way you can earn a semi-decent living is by being a crook, but that doesn’t give you a leg to stand on here.

for the obvious reasons i won’t be able to provide you with my intellectual work, which was already stated in the previous post

your word against the world

yeah – this is my own paper plagiarized so far with no added content,

that’s exactly the issue i have brought here, not only my own paper was misused, but also i am in the dead loop of not being able to cancel it
Gabriel:

even better –
1. i had NO paper delivered – i refused to accept it after the preview
2. another policy from your website allowing me cancellation and full refund in case if you are not able to assign the writer – after i was offered to revise this paper by another writer after couple of hours “No writer was found”
but i am still not able to proceed any further and cancelled it in written form to at least two different representatives. and i strongly believe that even though “your website policy says….” it most likely does not override the United States legislature.

You sent them your own paper? You know that they’ll be reselling it to other students at a discount rate, right?
Also, unfortunately, they aren’t subject to US laws, because they aren’t a US company. The chargeback is the way to go–make sure you follow through on it. The reason these companies stay in business is because most customers are either ignorant about chargebacks or are too lazy to put in the time involved.
