The snow is retreating
Here's another shot from my trip to the moors the other day.
This was taken heading from Cornwood up towards Lee Moor. It's quite typical of the rivers of the moors here in Devon when they pass through a fold or contour of land. This gives the shelter that allows the trees to grow in the otherwise exposed, inhospitable landscape of the wind-swept moors.
comments / critique / feedback always welcome :)
Stumble It!
It's all melting
A little frost was left in the areas sheltered from the worst of the snow. A little way off you can see the snow still lying in the more exposed spots.

Lovely photo. Hope the snow goes away soon so you can get into that great work of yours.
Keep warm
Love this photo. Beautifully done amd a lovely scene, but the tree to the left looks almost menacing as if it's waiting for a victim. Thought provoking stuff.

That photo got me all excited!
What a magnificent shot!!!
:)
love the snow(melting snow) shots in monochrome!
Nice shot Mark, all our snow has gone (for now).
Thanks folks:
@Gail, it was partly the lighting on that tree that got me interested in this point of view.
@Betty: I'm so pleased you enjoyed our virtual trip on the moors :)
@Ruth, hopefully some more to come...
@Imac: How's things cookin? Is the New Year doing good things for you?
Trees seem to bring to me a majestic and peaceful element to landscapes. Who doesn't receive pleasure from the beauty of a forest or single tree. Nice photo Mark. It is a blessing.
