Two Pines Roxby Moor

A bleak wet rainy day on the moor today but I took my Sony A7R IV along with the 100 -400 F4 lens and captured these two Scotch Pines which dominate the Landscape . There is something quite magical about days like these . I was not alone, as behind me, is an old Anglo Saxon burial mound who's sprits kept me company.
