"Clematis and Fog"

Postcards from Merion

I love to go outside in the early morning to see what's perking in my garden.  It's cool and the birds are chattering away.  The other noises of the coming day have not begun.  This particular morning there was a deep fog that made everything seem a little myserious. My first Clematis of the season struck me as it seemed to be nestled in the crotch of the dark Katsura tree behind.
