And here it is :-) Taken with a D800 last week. It is really difficult to take great photos of mass yellow like this. It can end up looking dirty yellow so easily.
Scene in Velserbeek estate, Velsen, The Netherlands: branches reaching out to right in front of the camera.
Lens: Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F/1.8.
Without a doubt one of my favorite senior pictures ever.

A funky mesquite tree caught my eye so I asked Jasper to pose on our walk last night. Didn't get much of the tree in the frame, but Jasper was the real subject anyway 😉
My favourite, local group of trees taken just after sunset. I chose the title because to me it looks like the tree on the left is trying to join the group on the right - and they don't like it!

The Grand Canyon is a colorful steep-sided gorge carved by the Colorado River in the U.S. state of Arizona. It is largely contained within the Grand Canyon National Park — one of the first national parks in the United States. President Theodore Roosevelt was a major proponent of preservation of the Grand Canyon area, and visited on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery.
The canyon, created by the Colorado River over a period of 6 million years, is 277 miles (446 km) long, ranges in width from 4 to 18 miles (6.4 to 29 km) and attains a depth of more than a mile (1.6 km). Nearly two billion years of the Earth's history have been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock while the Colorado Plateau was uplifted.
During prehistory, the area was inhabited by Native Americans who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves. The Pueblo people considered the Grand Canyon ("Ongtupqa" in Hopi language) a holy site and made pilgrimages to it.
The first European known to have viewed the Grand Canyon was García López de Cárdenas from Spain, who arrived in 1540.
The Grand Canyon was largely unexplored until after the U.S. Civil War. In 1869, Major John Wesley Powell, a one-armed Civil War veteran with a thirst for science and adventure, made the first recorded journey through the canyon on the Colorado River. He accomplished this trek with nine men in four small wooden boats, though only six men completed the journey. Powell referred to the sedimentary rock units exposed in the canyon as "leaves in a great story book".
