Pocono Manor Winter Madrugada

This image was taken at Pocono Manor in the heart of the Pocono Mountains, about a twenty minutes drive from Scranton.  The Portuguese word "madrugada" has multiple interpretations with the simplest being "dawn".  Other interpretations include the magical hour before dawn, and the deepest and darkest part of the night before the coming of dawn.  I like to think that this picture, taken in early February, catches the mood of the deepest and darkest part of the winter before the coming of spring.
