This landscape photograph was taken in the early afternoon during winter along the Monsal Trail in Derbyshire, England, which is part of the Peak District, United Kingdom. The main subject of the image is a prominent Chee Dale winter tree located in the foreground, its bare branches covered in patches of moss and reaching skywards, typical of the season. The scene also features several other trees set against a clear blue sky with visible aircraft contrails, indicating the crispness of the winter weather. A traditional dry stone wall and a wooden gate can be seen running alongside a grassy path at the edge of the photograph, while the wooded hills in the background highlight the undulating terrain characteristic of the area. The absence of foliage on the trees and the low-angled sunlight further reflect the winter time in this part of the Peak District.
