Queen's Court

Regally displayed
Rich crimson, her royal robes
Stately Maple stands






Inspired by Brian Strand's Images of Fall contest.

Love it. I have never a stand of maple trees because where I live they are rare or only planted in a person's yard. I know that a stand of them would be beautiful. Keep writing. Sara
