Rural landscapes: Colour in the midst of a struggling spring

WAGON ON THE PRAIRIES NEAR CARBON, ALBERTA

This scene looks like mid-winter, but it’s mid-April. On the Canadian prairies, that often means random snow days that leave fields looking many months away from planting.
I was driving a random road when this ornamental wagon came into view. I so loved the glowing colours amidst a muted landscape that I went all the way and turned everything but the wagon – and the ground it’s on – into black-and-white.
