Winter Weed


I spotted this stalk coming out of the snow on the front bank behind the picket fence. What is amazing to me is that it somehow survived two serious snowfalls. Seeing it silhouetted against the snow makes its delicate structure more obvious. I love the simplicity of this photograph. I think the delicacy of the stalk is made more obvious by the top of the fence, which is kind of clunky in its construction, in comparison.
