Two Spring Trees in Mist. Motherlode near Drytown, California. March 29, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

Two spring trees in the mist with newly sprouted grasses underneath – Motherlode near Drytown, California. This was a tough photography day. It was raining lightly and the light was quite flat due to the heavy overcast and fog, and although I spent hours “on the prowl” I only managed to shoot this one scene.
