Sleet lit by a streetlight and turned to lines with a long exposure. Without the tree in the corner, the composition becomes truly minimal. With the tree, we gain an organic counterpoint to the straight lines and man-made fixture. There is a bit of lens flare from the light in the tree branches. I should fix that.
