"Poconip" Ice Fog on Topaz Lake

I was disappointed to not be able to see the night sky before dawn this morning and there was no sunrise color to speak of, but we had some nice ice fog, locally referred to as "poconip",  putting a coating of frost crystals over everything as the sun came up, so the morning turned out very well for photography after all.  

I've placed this photo in my Weather album on G+, and I'll put some more shots from this morning there as well:
