On one side of the valley, the lush woodlands of the Crafnant Valley. On the other, the mountain of waste generated from Lead mining back in the 19th century.
I photographed the trees with a light tele lens and an open aperture to create a dreamy effect through a shallow depth of field. At the screen I saw that it was, for my taste, not enough to get the effect I was after, so I added some selective blur at the computer :)
HMBT! Happy Monochrome Bokeh Thursday
Many years ago (I think when I was in college), my mom and aunt went to an after Christmas sale and bought about 10 of these little stuffed snowmen because they were about a dollar each (mama is never one to turn down a good deal). My sister and I thought it was hilarious that our dining room table was covered in all these snowmen, which we thought were hideously ugly. We also thought the name "Snowden" was funny, although I later found out Snowden was a character in Raggedy Ann and Andy stories. When I left home, mama gave me one of her Snowdens, and later gave my sister one as well. Mama only has one that she puts out at Christmas, so I'll have to ask her if she remembers what she did with the rest of them.
Oh, and one more Snowden story: the Christmas mama bought them, I rubbed his head and asked him if he could make it snow so that I could have extra time to finish a term paper I was working on (obviously, I was just being silly; I didn't really think Snowden was magic). But would you believe that it did snow the next day, and I got extra time to finish my paper?

Way to hit it out of the park this November with Friends of Trees. YOU all were able to plant 1200 trees and shrubs while also spreading 16 cubic yards of mulch. Whether you were a human or dog at this planting, everyone had a huge part at this planting event and we really..REALLY want to say THANK YOU. Its not easy being green and the Sandy River Delta Park appreciates all your efforts. Hope to see you at another planting soon
