This group of snowy sumac trees is located at Medway Creek, a place I enjoy walking my dog.

Imagery of Light 
Love the slightest hint of tan.
thanks Bonnie!
It’s really Narnia-like. I love the pencil-drawn quality to it.
thanks, yes fresh snow creates a magical site…. the high contrast gives it that almost black and white look.
Stunning!!
thanks eremophila. and thanks for the reblog. is it supposed to show up as a link or do I need to do something?
Reblogged this on Eremophila’s Musings and commented:
Living in a mostly hot dry Continent, Australia, this is a sight I’m unlikely to experience myself, so I’ll have to content myself with admiring it from a distance.
Very beautiful – almost surreal – picture, Sheila! I could easily live with that on my living room wall.
And to me, it gets even better by cropping out the snow at the bottom of the frame – then its even more surreal. And its so near mono isn’t it? Excellent!!! Adrian
thanks Adrian. I thought about cropping it and have other views without the ground but actually I like the white area for contrast and context.
Not a pretty, warm, summery colour in sight … and I still think it’s beautiful. 😀
thanks – the way the sumac branches bend and twist is what I like the most about these trees.
