St. James Farm in December - part 1

Yesterday (Monday, Dec. 22) was a grey, rainy, chilly day. Today (Tuesday, Dec. 23) was completely different - sunny and relatively mild for December in Chicago, 50F/10C. I stopped at St. James Farm Forest Preserve just for a few minutes on my way to work to take a look around and snap a few photos. The farm was owned by the McCormick family (of International Harvester) who were horseback riding enthusiasts. The last surviving family member to live on the property (Brooks McCormick) transferred it to DuPage County in 2000.
I love this landscape and the sense of depth you've captured. The trees and sky are so pretty--it's a fav for me!
