Snowy woods

Wanted to do this last time
Title:  Wanted to do this last time
Description:  A couple of weeks prior to this shot, I was here, also with a Q train, and the shutter release failed. Now I have a shot at redemption. The power and several cars of todays Q train pass an old corrugated steel barn and a yard full of hay bales in a scene that is quintessential rural Oklahoma.
