Gloom

It’s February in the Pacific Northwest, gloom is the order of the day.

You sound very resigned to the weather...at least it does provide some great photo opportunities - this is so good at conveying the general atmosphere.

[Diana]

Beautifully gloomy, love the birds who seem to be loving that gorgeous tree.

[Babs]

[Kathryn M]

Might be gloom but at least the sky is interesting. I have just overcast and grey nothingness.

[KWind]

Great looking tree!

[LManning (Laura)]

Those clouds look awfully heavy… Love your birds.

[Kathy]

The birds are out in full force despite the gloom.

[Jane Pittenger]

Sure is. I’d like this cropped off right to edge of road

[Chris Cook]

@jgpittenger You’re quite right. There is a bird flying away on the right and I was trying to keep it in frame but it is small and hard to see. Your suggested crop is much more balanced.
