Celebrating tree growth and tree Tuesdays everyday! A joy for me to see. (I wandered around this year to view, but without a camera.)
"The Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is an evergreen conifer species in the pine family, Pinaceae. It is native to western North America and is also known as Douglas-fir, Douglas spruce, Oregon pine, and Columbian pine. There are three varieties: coast Douglas-fir (P. menziesii var. menziesii), Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir (P. menziesii var. glauca) and Mexican Douglas-fir (P. menziesii var. lindleyana)."

Taken by my spouse with his 200mm macro and old D4. After my accident with that remarkable lens--and repairs by Nikon are good, but I almost could have purchased a new one for the same price--I do not borrow this rather dear lens.
Slight crop. Maple tree that we did not have planted.
"In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth, or back into safety." - Abraham Maslow
“It’s only after you’ve stepped outside your comfort zone that you begin to change, grow, and transform.”

Transforming this mushroom-image, into this one. It was fun ;-))

most people are afraid of a new beginning as it often times means that new challenges are ahead. with an apprentice's mindset, one is able to look into themselves and find the true value that you are bringing into your new destiny. use these tests as a chance to make yourself better for the future.
Getting up one very frosty morning, I found this amazing structure about 2 inches high, growing from the birdbath. Completely round it looks like a frozen tornado, or whirlpool.

I'm enjoying seeing the new growth in my wife's garden, including the grape hyacinths springing up through the ivy.
This old silo near tiny Paynes Point IL. has become a planter pot for a young tree. Not the first time I have seen this, but no less cool....
You are traumatized, devastated and immobilized by the awful experiences that still have extremely debilitating effects on you in the present moment. And you work so hard, taking tiny little steps to keep reaching for growth even though it feels impossible. And that is amazing. You truly are fighting for life.

This is an in-camera double exposure I took back on June 13, 2021 while out in our yard at sunset, taking pictures as a way to try to cope with the difficult experiences and symptoms I struggle with each moment of each day. I was thankful for my time outside and the in-camera double exposure experimentation I was doing—it was helpful to have some moments of focusing on this positive, energizing activity and helped me make it through that evening.
Don't you just hate it when your vegetables go feral!

HCT!
I will be honest when I say this image was not planned out, nor was much time taken over shooting it.
But there is something about how it captures the melancholy dusk feeling, and draws your eye back into the tower shapes in the background mirroring the foreground which I found very interesting, and wanted to share.
Unfortunately this scene from the Birchen Coppice view point, has been taken over in resent years by tree growth. This is a shot I took of fourteen years ago where the view extended from the parish church of St Anne's in Bewdley across to the West Midland Safari Park. Featured loco working off Safari Curve is 80072.
Fitting in that just past those scraggly pine trees is our 22' lighted cross, that but for the growth, can be seen all over the Lompoc Valley from it's 400 foot elevation above town at the south edge of H Street.
It was built in 1912 to commemorate the destruction of the first Mission Concepcion Purisima de Maria Santisima. It was destroyed on December 8, 1812 in a huge 7.1 earthquake -- we still pass that split in the ravine going home every day.
