Having staked out its claim many generations ago, an old aspen sits tight and awaits the arrival of spring.
A first image taken for the purpose of testing an OM-10 and a Zuiko 28mm f/2.8 lens. I am not a great fan of the OM-10, and in truth it was purchased only for the lens that it had attached to it. At the moment it serves as a convenient backup while my OM-1N is out for a complete CLA.

February 15, 2015: I took this picture pulled over by the side of the road next to Sholan Farms apple orchard. This was a very windy day, so I couldn't keep my camera lens clean. I took this picture before the wind flared up and got the lens dirty; unfortunately, there are lens glares.
Driving down this road was intense. The wind was blowing the snow across the road so that I couldn't see more than three feet in front of me!
"'There she is!' yelled Happy and in the swirled-across top-of-the-world fog I saw a funny little peaked almost Chinese cabin among the little pointy firs and boulders standing on a bald rock top surrounded by snowbanks and patches of wet grass with tiny flowers." ~Jack Kerouac

Between the windows of the sea
Where lovely mermaids flow
And nobody has to think too much
About desolation row

Let's take a pause from natural landscapes: here we are in a old destroyed house in what, long time ago, was a military base. Now nature is mixed with the ruins, creating a deep sense of desolation.
Prendiamoci una pausa dai paesaggi naturali: qui siamo in una vecchia casa distrutta dentro a quella che, tempo fa, era una gloriosa base militare. Ora la natura è mescolata alle rovine, creando un profondo senso di desolazione.

Just a few short miles from the Snowy Mountains the desolate country to the east, between Cooma and Nimmitabel, is a treeless plateau.

"Thus says the LORD, "In a favorable time I have answered You, And in a day of salvation I have helped You; And I will keep You and give You for a covenant of the people, To restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages." – Isaiah 49:8
There's a vision coming soon
Through the faith that cleans your wound
Hearts of olden glory will be renewed
Down the lens where the headlands stand
I feel a healing through this land
A cross for a people
Like wind through your hands
There must be a place
Under the sun
Where hearts of olden glory
Grow young

Bircherley Green Hertford is being redeveloped and to see part of the town centre today made me think about the Dylan song of that name. To be fair to the builders are being incredible tidy but it's just sad to see it like this.
I include two verses of this wonderful morbid tone which seem to fit the bill.
They're selling postcards of the hanging
They're painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner
They've got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tightrope walker
The other is in his pants
