Lines of Winter

I know Washington is the "evergreen state" -- but not exclusively so. The deciduous trees create fabulous line-scapes against the winter skies.

Snow laden branches create reverse outlines with white being dominant.


As I drive through town, I have my favorite trees to look forward to. On this quiet snowy day, I had the street to myself and was able to get this shot of a tree near my sister's.


From late spring through fall these trees are fluffy masses that block out the sky. In winter they become a lacy screens that let the sky come through.
