Spring! The fresh aspen leaves looks almost "rusty". The same spot in 2016:

...is on it's way. I have to say I was a little skeptic whether beauty of spring could be capture in monochrome. Or more likely whether I can do it. I have seen many beautiful black and white spring photographs before, but I was not sure how to do that myself. Then I remembered the delicate green flowers of maple trees. They look maybe even better in black and white, and that is because in monochrome their beautiful shapes get the whole attention instead of the color.

...is coming to town! I expected to see Tussilago farfara on this very spot to grow up first, but looks like spring skipped it, and jumped to Taraxacum.
