Shards

Beneath rime covered birch the shards clatter down as the wind gets up. Another of the pleasures of early mornings.
Mist also helps to bring out the part played by trees in the landscape. But then what kind of a landscape is it without them - a grouse moor?
It's impressive that each pine reaches for the light at a slightly different angle to the others. And that some trees, noticeably the alder can't resist challenging the imagination maybe in the hope of frightening off the more timid visitor.
