- Born in London, I've lived in The Netherlands, New York, and Washington DC. Now I've settled down in Colorado and love taking pictures. Until October 2014 I used a Nikon D40X, but now it's a Nikon D5300. I do almost no photo editing - occasionally I will crop or remove a dust spot, but that's all. What comes out of the camera is what you see here.

I love the colours in the soil contrasted with the intense blue sky. It looks warm, just what I need on a cool spring day. - Margy
ReplyDeleteI like the contrast of the softness of the clouds with the roughness of the tree and earth. Great capture!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the tree is reaching up and hoping to join the clouds. Beautiful shot!
