17 MILE DRIVE

Scene from Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park, California

It is an odd winter. The piles of snow we had ten days ago have disappeared under above zero temperatures and rain. This trend is uncommon in January in Ontario! The snow you see in this photo is now all gone!

For my Tennessee friends, these were your mountains around noon today....I braved the elements, without a coat to ride to the TN state line to capture this before the roads got slick.

I think this may be a Lodgepole Pine but.....

Belle lumière sous cet arbre au jardin botanique.

Not the most exciting subject but for some reason I liked the results. When I took the photo I hadn't planned on posting it.

I took this with the Meyer-Optik Goerlitz Trioplan f2.8/100 lens with the lens wide open at f2.8.

Quelque de chose qui ne manque pas ici : ses résineux par milliers. Sans eux, les forets montagnardes seraient bien tristes.
