Wintry rural road, icy in spots . . . unplowed cornfield on one side . . . eight foot deep ditch on the other side.
Caution is advised.

Teasel heads, late afternoon
Colour
An overcast, grey, almost gloomy day ended with a pleasant splash of colour, low in the western sky.
A thought
Sometimes we get caught up in the frenzy of the moment. Sometimes we need to step back, look at and consider the larger picture.
No matter the outcome of the US election, however all of the thousands of contests turn out, no matter when the contest for president is decided, tonight – or tomorrow, or whenever – the United States will still exist. As will its citizens.
As will fields, sky, mountains, trees, birds.
Life will go on.
Immense
I enjoy revisiting how immense the prairie sky, the flatland sky, is. There is always something to see, above the skyline and below the skyline.
Stands
A young tree stands silhouetted against the dawn, awaiting another day.
Barn, Chatham-Kent
March
As another lovely dawn lifts the veil from the landscape, hydro poles march diagonally across the scene.
Tranquil
Pausing to absorb a tranquil landscape was a wonderful way to start the day.
Winter scene
You may recall that I photographed this tree last fall and Faye suggested visiting it during succeeding seasons. Today was a good day to visit in winter, and look at it from a slightly different angle. It was perhaps the most wintry day of the season so far. A light blanket of snow drapes the cornfield; the only thing I could not capture was the -9C temperature and roughly -15C wind chill. Winter, indeed.
I will revisit sometime in the spring.
