By chance I saw this scene while flying the drone home after photographing across the river for my community's Facebook page. I was enchanted by the misty contrasts which reminded me of natural landscapes. It must be time to go back into the hills.
I love how the sun is diffused through the precipitation which is opposed by the silhouette of the Cotronwood tree. We have a love/hate relationship with that tree since it sheds branches onto my neighbour's house and it blows white pollen "cotton" which gets everywhere - even into the houses. But, we can admire its towering beauty.
