Beech tree lined road through the Manse Plantation, near Munlochy.

Have Blipped this scene a few times before - usually around this time of year. Part of the cycle route to work. I do like the delicate shade of the newly opened Beech leaves - especially when combined with the fallen orange/brown ones from past years, and the early morning sunlight. What I don't like, is the ever increasing amount of litter tossed from vehicles along the route. Saddening to me. Will occasionally clear up some, but it seems to worsen day by day. Some swine even dumped an old TV near here (as recorded on the Film journal).

Don't make the mistake of thinking it was warm.
