thaw

In January, I was in a sanatorium near Minsk for rehabilitation after suffering from COVID-19. I was recommended to take daily walks and breathe fresh forest air. After two weeks of great winter weather, a thaw suddenly set in. The snow has thawed a little, a real spring drop has started from the trees and roofs. The rays of the sun, breaking through the branches of the trees, carried warmth. Nature reported that winter is not eternal and spring will surely come after it! I tried to convey these feelings with a photograph.
