The Frazinus Quadrangulata is known as the Blue Ash Tree. Its native range is in North America from Michigan south to Arkansas and Tennessee. The height is about 50 to 75 feet once fully grown and can spread from 35 to 60 feet wide. It blooms between April to May and is usually a purple accent color. It needs very little maintenance and is tolerance of deer and droughts. It grows easily in dry to medium wet, well-drained soils. This is considered to be one of the best ashes for dry sites. The wood of blue ash is commonly used to products including tool handles and furniture. One major problem with this tree is the Emerald Ash Borer. The borer will kill an ash tree typically within 3 to 5 years after infestation. This pest is hard to kill off due to the fact that it feeds under the bark and bores into the wood.

I took time out from my 'creations' to put up our Christmas tree. My son felt that if he didn't push me hard enough I'd remain glued to my work table ;p
We changed the location of our tree this year. Usually its placed in the recess of a bay window but we decided to do some relocation of furniture and the tree now sits at the entrance to our living room. Today I would have to put away the boxes you see strewn in the background and place the skirt around the base. Almost done, we just need to place the Christmas star at the top of the tree and will probably be done tonight.
I shot this unusual tree near Canal 3 at the Boqueirão Beach in Santos, São Paulo, Brazil.

The plan was simple and flawless. There was no way I could mess this up.
I'd decided that it was time to add a spot of colour to my photostream. I like to add some from time to time. I'd eyed up a few of the rapeseed fields over the past couple of weeks and with the mixed weather this weekend, thought I might get a good mix of light and cloud.
However things happen and I ended up getting to the field later than planned. I was taking a few shots more to try out for a future revisit when suddenly the sun broke through the clouds for one last hurrah before night followed. Brilliant I thought. Until I got home and started processing.
Now I might get around to working on a colour image but for some reason I got part way along processing this and thought "this would look good in black and white". Which is how it's ended up being.

Lands End, SF, April 2018. I sadly didn't notice all the water that got on my UV filter when I took these particular shots, but I like them otherwise.

So life has been interesting lately. I've been doing some print exchanges, which pretty much make my day... my boyfriend has been working for the past three days and i won't see him till tuesday. :( My sleep schedule is jacked up. I stayed up all night one night, and for the past two nights i've woken up at three am....then fall asleep at nine until 2pm... -.- It's ridiculous.
On top of all of that I have like no money right now...which sucks a lot. I'm hopefully fixing my photo printer to save money on printing prints,though.....
Oh! I'm also working on finishing a roll of film. I hope it all turns out nice...
