Not strictly mono .....

.... but turning it red & black rescued a poor image!

Hope this isn't too far off the brief Laurie .... thanks for hosting :-)

I had a real job trying to get a decent photo of this ..... this is the best of the bunch ... the rest are in the bin!

We had our first snowfall this morning but the ground was so wet from all the rain it didn't settle .... soon went back to rain again ... still cold & very windy :-(

Hopefully we'll have some dry weather soon! We're under flood alert ..... fingers crossed it doesn't get upgraded .... so many have got it much worse!

Stay safe & warm everyone :-)
