In the Bleak Midwinter

The title of this post is also the title of one of my favorite Christmas songs.  It talks of the earth resting, and our human reaction to the earth withholding its colors and brilliance until spring awakens it again.

I love this field behind our property.  In winter, these small trees are stripped of their garments of leaves, and you can see every detail of their shape and the color of the bark.  They are starkly beautiful.
