Early Morning in the Park

As I'm on holidays this week, I went hunting for images for the monthly challenge after dropping my son to school.
I made my way to the local park where I knew I'd find some swans. It was bitterly cold and the only other person there was a hardy dog walker.
I took my photos and left quickly, glad to get home to a warm cup of tea.
I am really enjoying the monthly challenge which is based on book titles. I've set myself a separate challenge that I will only depict books I have read.

Here's today's cover:

It's got that December look to it. Nice silhouetted trees and BG. V

the relatively clear mornings can be the really cold ones..this looks a bone-chiller..

Beautiful works of both of the cloud and swan, I have drawn the Silhouette of tree since two days ago. V

Love the "clouds/fog" in this image. Well done.

It does look chilly - just right to put you in the mood for a nice cuppa :o)

There is no doubting the season from this picture! Even without reading about your experience you've caught the "look" of cold well.
