Tree silhouettes

I seem to do a lot of these in the winter. The low angle of the light and the lack of leaves on the deciduous trees makes for some interesting contrasts between tree and sky. So I give you yet another version of tree silhouettes.

This time with a misty vineyard in the background.

I'm going to make a run to the local déchetterie (refuse depot) to get rid of a bunch of cardboard boxes that were accumulating in the garage. I broke them down yesterday and I'll haul them over for recycling this morning along with a few other items that can't go into the garbage bin. Life in France is filled with such exciting adventures!

    Make that déchetterie run pdq before the rain reaches you! Soggy cardboard is no fun. P.

    Landscapes in winter can be so beautiful. Not to mention refuse depots.
