Sometimes I think it was fate that my car was suppose to break down along side this road right in front of this beautiful field of trees at 7:30 AM. And, I just so happen to have my camera in the car this AM. Hmmm.....maybe I should sell this print - and make some money to help pay my $545.00 bill for tow and car repairs???

I wonder what tree it was, what leaves it held and fruits it bore and is it less dramatic now than then, of all the birds that have rested there the ones that may have nested there and its still a perch thats regularly used by a buzzard that likes to sit and stare
A sign of life in a log that was once an old Prunus tree in our garden!
Thank you all for commenting and favouring my images it is very much appreciated.
These are a gallery of about 100 different Trees of Leicester. They are taken from many different locations and at various times of the year which shows off their most resplendent looks (I hope).
Sometimes we just walk past them and not notice they are even there. But take a step back and look beyond the people, the shops, the buildings and the streets. You will see an amazing array of Trees that shape Leicester and makes it a glorious place to be.
I hope you recognise these trees and if not –keep a look out for them the next time you are in Leicester.
An Appalachian Mountain view that reminds me of Robert Frost's verse from his poem Mending Wall:
"There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, "Good fences make good neighbours."
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
"Why do they make good neighbours? Isn't it
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows."
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn't love a wall"
Don't you agree we are building far too many walls (political, social, cultural, gender, religious, etc., etc., etc.) between us, and giving far too much offence?
This was shot in 2005 with my first camera Nikon E5700 F 3.3 1/153 sec
ISO 100 @ 18 mm This was a cold frosty morning in february at 8:00 am. I have returned to this location many frosty mornings since but the light has never been the same.
One more posting from the Garden of Ashburton Domain before we move on to Lake Tekapo.
This tree was planted on 1 September 1910 by the then Mayor Mr. Henry Davis in memory of Florence Nightingale.

This man who lives here on Wildhorse Creek Rd in West Co Missouri,,Tells the story that a young boy riding to fast off the hill ended up crashing into this tree 50 years ago and the parents left the bike in the tree to teach him a lesson not to ride so fast,,,He Decorates his whole yard for Christmas and everyone is welcome to stop in and take a tour and come inside for hot coco,,,,what a wonderful person :o)
I like the enchantment of this photograph, and the uncertainty that comes when wondering where the trees end and the water starts.
An Autumn Evening by Lucy Maud Montgomery
Dark hills against a hollow crocus sky
Scarfed with its crimson pennons, and below
The dome of sunset long, hushed valleys lie
Cradling the twilight, where the lone winds blow
And wake among the harps of leafless trees
Fantastic runes and mournful melodies.
The chilly purple air is threaded through
With silver from the rising moon afar,
And from a gulf of clear, unfathomed blue
In the southwest glimmers a great gold star
Above the darkening druid glens of fir
Where beckoning boughs and elfin voices stir.
And so I wander through the shadows still,
And look and listen with a rapt delight,
Pausing again and yet again at will
To drink the elusive beauty of the night,
Until my soul is filled, as some deep cup,
That with divine enchantment

Hopefully some of you have gone out to Organ? It is a very beautiful state and everyone should visit. I was gendering around and found a small wine shop on the corner of a street. It was a great place to stop for some water and take in the coffee shop area near by.
