#125 - dried conifer on green wood

A cold, wet day today. Sometimes, something surprising catches your eye, in the hedge or tucked behind a fence. Like this dead conifer, dried into such rich shades of chestnut and umber, it may have been intense anyway but it stood out as it trailed over the green algae on the wooden rail, one of those colour combinations that make you glad to be alive and outside despite the wind and the rain.
