Crowning Glory

The coldest night of the winter so far and a morning drive up to visit Mum and Steve.  Luckily the forecast snow didn't affect our journey, although further north the first coverings of snow for the winter did arrive.  A day looking after Mum and relaxing doing the cross-word with Andy.  On  an afternoon walk around the village as the sun began to fall, I caught this mellow scene with my camera - a row of hedgerow trees against a watery winter sky.   Tonight ice is forming on the puddles outside on the pavement.
