Like how you can see weather direction - back half icy showing wind and water direction. Sits along the shorelines of Lake Ontario at Bluffer's Park. A GORGEOUS part of the city. Shadow play is kinda cool.
Happy Day to You All. 🙋♀️🌷
The severe angle of this tree, and the evidence of complete surgery of all of its limbs, was not enough to destroy its ability to survive. Fresh branches have sprouted...I hope it makes it.
Ironically, this tree survives at a "ghost town" , Glen Haven, Michigan.

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
The year has gone so fast (at least for me) and now as autumn sets in, I start to miss spring when all the blossoms are out and the freshness of a new season is so exhilarating. I came across this in all my photos and dedicate it to my favorite season gone too soon! Thanks for your faves and comments!

Some trees have leaves that just refuse to drop to the ground in the fall. They beautifully cling to the tree providing a colorful contrast against the snow all winter long. They finally let go in the spring when the new soft green leaves take over their shift for the warm summer months.
A Black Walnut branch fills this mosaic with beauty and subtle color. The shining sun beams through the nine leaves on the branch.
The original image was captured with my iPhone 11 in my right hand, while my left hand held the branch up against the sun.
This collage was created in picmonkey.com using my one original image and replicated six times here.
Beauty is everywhere. Reach out and capture it!
A Great Blue Heron delivers another stick to the nest!
There are at least a dozen active heron nests at the GB heron rookery, and I counted 16 herons perched on or near their nests.
I loved the background in this one. The foreground element required compromises (overlapping branches) and I had to move away from the square.
Some cuteness for your Friday! Three great horned out chicks branching together. They had just climbed out of the nest and were exploring the tree together. Not only was their nest perfect, but the entire tree was also interesting and a total playground for these chicks.
