The first snowfall has arrived; it's now on its second day and seems inclined to linger.
It's not early in the season;
it's not especially late.
Just winter.
This is one of our "Druidic burials": a clump of uprooted trees that have been trimmed so the disturbed earth settles down again, and the rent in the landscape is healed. This one will yield some pretty good firewood!
The grove at the edge of the wood. The even-aged stand of red pine, all crown-lifted to the same height, create odd lighting effects.
Here is the Lone Pine in its winter array; if only there were some sun!
The light scattering of snow on the branches emphasizes the darkness under the closed canopy. Even in winter, with the leaves all down, it can be quite gloomy.
