This has such a melancholy feel to it. Like viewing Nature's skeletal remains at a wake. The difference between Nature and us is that there is always another Spring on the horizon for one. And never more than a single wake on the horizon for the other...
Thanks, Clive and Ken. The atmosphere in the scene was quite inviting, but the composition was limited by choice of lens and camera position, so I was happy to see that it turned out well.
