They are the trees
Rotten pulp inside, and never well.
Roots are sucking,
Thieving from my source.
Tired boughs,
Reaching for the light...
It is all false pretension
Harlequin forest
Awaiting redemption for a lifetime
As they die alone
With no one by their side
Are they forgiven?

The trunks of tall conifers trees in afternoon light
I had initially stopped near these trees to photograph an entirely different subject in the opposite direction, behind my position as I made this photograph. I spent a good deal of time on that other subject, but in the end it didn't (at least not as of this date) end up seeming to "work" quite the way I envisioned. As I finished I saw this row of strong, side-lit tree trunks and thought it might make a photograph. Ironically, I almost didn't both — at first the light wasn't remarkable, and I knew that I had photographed similar subjects in the past with success. I wasn't sure that this version was going to work.
But, this being a cloudy day in the Valley, the variable light began to play on the trees, alternately lighting them and putting them in shade. At the same time, the variability extended to the complex pattern of more distant forest. I'm always intrigued by the challenge of making a workable composition out of very complex and "busy" subjects, and here the momentary light makes all the difference.

Today starts an 11 day vacation for us and it has been a perfect day so far! We drank coffee on the deck and then took a three hour hike in the Kettle Moraine Forest along a section of the Ice Age Trail. Birds were singing, trilliums and other wildflowers were blooming everywhere, and it was in the low 70's with sun and low humidity. It won't be much longer before mosquitoes and biting flies take over the trails and we're enjoying their absence while it lasts.
While we're missing our second road trip of the year, we can't complain about it. We're still healthy, as are our friends & family. We've also been working this entire time and the coming week is going to bring us a lot of nice weather. Plus, being home with the kitties is always good!

The "Taffarel Road" cuts through the ancient Cansiglio, the second largest forest in Italy, for many kilometers. This forest used to be also known as “Gran Bosco da Reme di San Marco” – a grand name that makes a clear reference to the fact that the government of the Republic of Venice obtained from here the wood it needed for its naval fleet.
