Walk in black and white

I am usually posting colorful photos, but this scene surprised me with its perfectly graphical elements that stand out much better without any color distractions... taking into account that there were not so many colors anyway. :-) So let it be one of my rare black and white postings...

 

This is a very characteristic scene of a birch tree forest that you would often see in Latvia and other Baltic countries, in Scandinavia, and probably in few other European countries, too. It might be found even in many of our painters' works. But for me it always associates with some of the most dear childhood impressions and memories in Latvia... maybe simple, yet beautiful scenery.
