Bare tree on a cool, sunny winter day at the lake


Hi friends. I took this picture at White Rock last weekend. I like the starkness of the bare tree, the hardscrabble earth in the foreground, the brooding, dark clouds overhead, and the steely light reflecting on the water. It all made for a simple composition that seemed to work.

I like that composition too. Sometimes White Rock Lake can have some magic.
I used to like to go walking there alone or with my dogs a lot.

I really love the strong mood of those clouds and the mix of the earthy colors.
