Default De-icer anyone?

I didn't take these photos myself - got them in an email. They're taken in Switzerland. They make our recent moaning about the weather seem a bit trivial!

I would have thaught they were real, but do look a bit freaky though. You may have to wait a fair while before you could get in one of those cars. Wouldn't have thaught it would do the suspension much good given the weight of all that ice!

That's what I thought at first, but I'm not sure that even a proficient user of Photoshop could create that much detail.

If it was cold enough and there was a good brezee then there is no reason the mist could not cause this,
