Weekly Photo Challenge: Treasure

SONY DSC

I usually do not explain my photo choices. This lane takes me to a place I treasure for peace,my summer home. Watching this road you can see sun making beautiful colors and shadows as it goes around it. So it looks different all the time.. You can hear the birds sing – you can hear the silence! What a treasure to go and relax from the hectic life we lead.

I’ve been very quiet lately as I’ve been rather ill past week,  so sorry for lack of comments…( I have sinusitis which is also the in the frontal lobe, and bronchitis. and to top it all a viral infection simultaneously.) I should not be doing this but I’m totally bored of laying down and resting.

The idea is to use 3-4 color from the color palette given. These are clearly winter colors.
