A Winter's Day

Following on from the comment on Monday, indeed it did turn rather cold as I was out on that day with temperatures around minus one or two with my thick socks on apart from a marginally longer pair of short trousers and a coat that covered more of my body outside of thick gloves and a hat!

Although the ground was a bit soft under foot in recent days the bails had been put out with fairly regular spacing.

I thought this tree framed the scene rather well.

A broader view from a different point shows the ridges in the background with frost with the brilliance of the deciduous trees illuminated by the warm glow of the sun.   

Strangely enough it did feel warmer in the field while taking these pictures than it did than it did within yards of leaving the path for the roadside.
