Trees in winter display a delicacy that is not present when they have their leaves.  Last week, I took a quick drive down Hwy 6 and photographed some of the trees.  This one was south of Marlin, on the west side of the road.

This one was at the Falls County/Robinson County line on the east side of the highway.

This one was on the east side of the highway.  You can really see the effects of the prevailing South winds with most of the branching being on the North side of the tree.

This one was also on the East side of the highway.  The character in this tree is remarkable.  It is obvious that this tree has been severaly damaged, but has survived the damage with new growth.
