Love the smaller tree in the middle-right with its ghost-like appearance. The shadows are wonderful in this. You do black and whites so superbly mon amie.

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom
Hi there, dear lady. All I can say is WOW and really truly heartfelt WOW and WOW again, and I have missed so many of your amazing pieces this week. I truly love them so, but that part of my brain that usually says why is not cooperating very well these days. I have tried to explain more in my (over-lengthy!) post today. I really hope this finds you well, and I will miss you, dear lady Lorraine.
24 Jan 2008 5:31pm
@Rebecca: Hey You?!You'll miss me? that means you're going away? now that's not good, I'll have to go check that departing speech. I'll miss you ;)
Forouz from ., Germany
It is cold, even the down-bended baranches of trees say it... clam... and the shadows are great in B & W

@Forouz: NIcely put Forouz, I think they're probably too cold to move ;)

@alex centrella: Hey Nicely put Alex :) thanks a lot!
Paulski from Muncie, United States
this is very pretty; you capture an extensive range from the highlights to the shadows, and the wintry scene looks all to familiar...
well done...
