I took this photo in early January of this year in Gothenburg right by the airport. A football sized field of rock candy mirage

Snow falls from clouds. Pretty sure those crystals formed in place and they would be considered hoarfrost.
Hoarfrost is a type of frost that forms when water vapor in the air turns directly into ice crystals on solid surfaces that are below freezing. It has a feathery appearance and is often found on objects with small diameters, like tree branches, wires, and plant stems.

I thought this was an aerial shot of a forest. Then a ground view of clouds. And then I read the title of this thread.
