I obtained this surreal view of Utah Lake in the distance below by climbing a mountain in my truck. Quads and side-by-sides were surprised that a truck made it there. Although not very deep, the water is an unusual color and has a bacteria growth that deters swimming.

 

Zoom in to see the snow-covered mountain peak in the distance.

After a fire, the blackened trees still stand. Eventually they fall and a new forest grows. I know fire is a natural part of the forest cycle but I don't like the aftermath.

Weird little branches growing inside that hollowed out tree...

There is only one place in Victoria that I know of where you where can walk right into the canola fields and immerse yourself in the glorious and bright golden yellow flowers, and that is at the 'Cornella Canola Walk'. In conjunction with the Shiraz Republic Winery and Cornella Brewery just outside of Heathcote in country Victoria, a canola walk has established complete with a viewing platform and walking track through the flowering yellow crop. And this is where I went on Saturday.

 

Amongst the vast fields of canola, there stood one single tree with wonderfully twisted branches. Known as the Piano Tree, this tree reminded me of the windswept trees inhabited by witches and faeries drawn by one of my favourite illustrators from the Golden Age of Children's Illustration, Arthur Rackham as it basked alone in a pool of late afternoon sun.

 

Now in its third year, the 'Cornella Canola Walk' is a wonderfully immersive experience that is full of colour! It was a wonderful way to spend the last day of winter this year, surrounded by a seemingly endless field of golden yellow flowers beneath the blue sky!

I think, his time is over soon.

Suwannee, FL

Taken the day before tropical storm Colin hit - the water was already beginning to whitecap. Our intention was to go red snapper fishing 15 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. We got about 7 1/2 mi out and had to turn back because of high seas and threatening rain. Aborted trip and came back to GA.

Amongst the vast fields of canola, there stood one single tree with wonderfully twisted branches. This tree is known as the Piano Tree, because beneath its twisted branches at its base stands an old Victorian upright piano. Made by K. Schmidt Piano Manufacturers in Berlin, the upright piano is made of walnut and has beautiful panels inlaid with brass. Although out of tune, the piano can still be played. The Piano Tree reminded me of the windswept trees inhabited by witches and faeries drawn by one of my favourite illustrators from the Golden Age of Children's Illustration, Arthur Rackham as it basked alone in a pool of late afternoon sun.

An ancient tree, shaped by time and elements, stands like a sculpture among the rolling hills and patchwork fields of Mayfield's Valley. A quiet testament to resilience and beauty of the countryside.

 

Thanks for the views, faves, and kind comments. They're always appreciated. Have a lovely weekend 😊✨️🙏

Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!

First time I can remember getting up early to catch a sunrise at the seaside.

Sidmouth, Devon

... seen at the coastal trail of The Ovens Nature Park, wonderful path and place in Nova-Scotia.

Australia, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory

Lumberjack removing a dead pine tree from my neighbors yard. I think it was killed by southern pine beetles. They've had to have several dead pine trees removed because the beetles destroyed them.

A fire set by a 15 year old boy playing with smoke bombs was ignited on 9/2/17. It burned over 48,800 acres of forest. Blackened dead trees can be seen above Oneonta Falls.

Joshua Tree National Park

Southern California

We arrived at Smith Rock State Park shortly before sunset yesterday. Today we hiked around the park and arrived home just as a massive thunderstorm hit with hail and heavy rain. Hopefully we will have another chance at a sunset here as the sheer cliffs of basalt and tuff are lovely at sunset.

 

Happy Treemendous Tuesday!

You might be able to get a sense of the drop into the valley below by the dead tree on the left.
