Here is me, having fun with a flat boring branch photo I took a while ago. God Bless Adobe Photoshop :)))

(or possibly Common Fringe Lily?)

just because

What can be more compelling than a view on deep everlasting sky? The sky seen through the tree branches. This is one of those ancient big trees that has been here for hundreds of years, now protected by law. How many generations of travelers will see the sky through its branches?

66760 David Gordon Harris fights its way through the line side foliage along the branch from Wellington to Donnington RFT. Seen approaching the terminal with an MOD working from Marchwood running as 6Z78 from Eastleigh where the train had overnighted.

East Branch of the Delaware River, looking downstream, near East Branch, NY .

Taken after an ice storm in New England. I love the lines and perspective on this image. The mini-icicles hanging from the branches gives it a somewhat dramatic feel. Regardless, this is winter in New England.

I lucked out today and this little lady decided to grab a rest right in front of me. Not only did she pop by for a visit but she stayed long enough for me to readjust the camera settings and snap this shot.

Every once in a while; a photo just lands in front of you face and you'd be silly to pass that by. (especially with a camera in hand)

Hope everyone is staying safe and doing well.

Desert Branches” — Branches with sparse foliage, Red Rock Canyon State Park.

This was most definitely not the subject I was looking for at this place.We were on the long drive back to California after a few weeks of photography in Utah when we decided to make a quick stop at the Red Rock Canyon State Park in the desert regions of Southern California. The main visual target there was to be the fantastically eroded formations — that least we would see that felt a bit like the Southwest as we headed home.

We arrived late in the day, just before sunset. Because the hills near the entrance face east, the area was already in the early evening shadows. We photographed the red rock formations in the soft, blue-tinted light, and at some point I happened to spot these sparse plants silhouetted against bright ground in the distance and illuminated by the evening’s bluish light.

Thank you all known and unknown friends in Flickr for your visit
