This was made the same day as my earlier post 'Maple and Pines'. The light was gorgeous under a very light rain.

Preston,

You know I really like this one. Great combo with the ferns and burnt tree. I love the subtle, but clear reflected gold on the lower part of the charred trunk. No nits or suggestions, looks beautiful.

A good find, Preston, and well composed. I like the colors and tree variations.

Its amazing how something that black would reflect so much color! I also love how the ferns almost seem to be cradling the burned trunk in a sense of trying to care for it. Nice.
