Winter Oak Silhouette

A majestic bare oak tree stands silhouetted against a vibrant blue evening sky, its intricate branches creating a striking natural pattern. The low sun casts a dramatic backlight, highlighting the tree's form on a gently rolling green hill.

March in the Bay Area, and the deciduous trees are still bare, though the grass is already greening up. I liked the way the sun backlit the branches of this oak, and the stark contrast against the sky.
