Lovely misty feeling here and good reflections. The path with the light coming through invites you to walk along it. Lovely, Sarah!

If you hadn’t stated which month you took the photo, I would have guessed March. It’s that in between month of not quite winter but still has the bite and starkness. I love the mood and greyness despite the foreground greenery……love it Sarah.
