Icy Beer Frost

I had placed a beer in the freezer last night to cool it off quicker, then forgot about it. Took it out tonight, completely frozen. The bottle immediately began to frost over, so I shot it in macro.

In the photo above, you see the script "s" at the end of the Sam Adams' debossed in glass on the bottle, covered in condensation frost. Below is another shot of the side of the bottle. Below that is a 100% crop detail of the photo, so you can see the ice crystals that make up the frost.

To the naked eye, the frost appeared to be a uniform and smooth matte white coating. In macro/micro, the frost appears to be irregular and lumpy, though I had expected it to be a little more crystalline.

Send me your suggestions for something tiny that you'd like to see big.
