BEST SEEN IN BLACK BOX -press the letter 'L'
Ever noticed how the leaves, on the tops & most outward growth of most trees & shrubs, are always the largest, fullest, healthiest leaves of the tree.
These leaves and the branches they grow from are the year's new growth, and this is where the plant cells are dividing & reproducing the fastest. It only occurs on this season's new twig growth. A plants version of 'stem cell' growth ...pardon the pun on 'stem'.
Due do the excessive healthiness of this new growth, they are generally more resistant to weather conditions & disease & they are most often the last leaves to fall. After a tree or bush has lost 99.99% of it leaves, these last 'hangers-on' create the beautiful splashes of color sprinkled throughout the forest after the fall colors have disappeared.
This capture is of an even age birch stand meaning the canopy of the forest is all at the same height. With the leaves gone, the camera is able to penetrate the forest capturing more of the forests depth. The newer birch growth in the foreground is the forest's edge. These young trees demonstrate even higher rate of this fast growth phenomenon & often have more leaves remaining.
The last leaves at the top of this forest's crown have now been taken by the winds, leaving beautiful splashes of color in the lower more sheltered areas.
This image is captured in the lake's reflection, creating textures of light & color similar to the brush strokes of an impressionist's brush strokes.
A little stream which runs through the forest captured after a good day of rain.
I get my camera back tomorrow so I'll be back with some fresh images soon.
This is best viewed on black, pressing L will make this happen.
Glad you stopped by, comments and criticisms are, as always, much appreciated.

Bombetoka bay, Madagascar, false color (8,4,3)

Info: Bombetoka Bay is home to some of Madagascar’s largest remaining communities of mangroves, which provide shelter for diverse mollusc and crustacean communities, as well as a habitat for sea turtles, birds, and dugongs. The mangrove forests capture river-borne sediment that would smother coastal reefs, while reefs buffer the mangroves from pounding surf.
Sedimentary transport and suspension in Bombetoka Bay has significantly changed during the past 30 years, with a dramatic increase in the amount of sediment moved by the Betsiboka river and deposited in the estuary and in offshore delta lobes. These changes have adversely affected agriculture, fisheries, and transportation for one of Madagascar’s largest ports.

Mon intérêt s'est attaché d'abord aux inscriptions cabalistiques peintes sur les arbres et sur les palettes de bois désarticulées qui constituent les affûts de chasse du patrimoine forestier ardennais.
En parcourant exclusivement les sentiers forestiers, je me suis aperçu également qu'il est difficile de photographier le cadre naturel sans que figurent sur les photos les marques posées par l'Homme. Martelages, coupes, préservations, zones privées, bornes, réserves naturelles, interdits, balises de randonnées, etc. Des éléments incongrus qui semblent peints, gravés ou posés parfois en dépit du bon sens. Autant de marques qui apparaissent comme des tatouages qui rappellent notre décalage avec la nature constamment exploitée et modifiée.
Mon intention première n'est pas d'inventorier, d'expliquer ou de dépeindre les marques, mais de sillonner forêts et prairies pour esthétiser ensemble l'environnement et les empreintes par le cadre et la lumière. Pourtant, certaines marques interpellent.

Ein stiller Moment im Wald, eingefangen mit dem Minolta 200mm f/3.5 von 1974. Der Efeu rankt sich am Baumstamm empor. Das weiche Licht zwischen den Bäumen zaubert ein malerisches Bokeh im Hintergrund. Die Linse bringt auch hier ihren charakteristischen analogen Charme ein.
A quiet moment in the forest, captured with the Minolta 200mm f/3.5 from 1974. The ivy climbs up the tree trunk. The soft light between the trees creates a picturesque bokeh in the background. The lens brings its characteristic analog charm here too.
Microplastic particles have been found at the farthest reaches of the planet and within human bodies. But what does the presence of this anthropogenic new material mean for other entities with which humans share the planet? Stranger to the Trees is a new media project exploring the complementary coexistence of microplastics and trees as carbon sinks. How do trees and microplastics coexist in forests, capturing carbon in the time of the climate crisis? Combining video, interactive sound and sculpture, Stranger to the Trees queries the response of forest ecosystems to the ubiquitous and irrevocable dispersal of microplastics around the world. The extensive transdisciplinary research behind Stranger to the Trees has also given rise to a scientific paper showing the first evidence of microplastic inclusion in tree roots.

A light variation on pine forest captured by vertical pan method. This image was created from the same source as www.flickr.com/photos/tomasturecek/4631468956/ but with different post-processing. It is interesting how easily you can change the atmosphere of the photo only by post-processing. This one evokes an atmosphere of a bright sunny day.
This is my first forest motion blur photo.

Andrenosoma fulvicaudum (Say 1823). Found at Pleasant Valley Conservancy SNA in southern Wisconsin. Dane County, Wisconsin, USA.
Found on fallen hardwood tree/log, mixed hardwood forest.
Captured this one just as something flew overhead. That's why it's head is tilted upwards (tracking it).

The Mirador de San Nicolas offers a magnificent views of the Alhambra in Granada, the fortress-castle overlooking the Andalusian city from the time of Arab rule in Spain. At any time of day (and I presume during the night) people sit on the wall and on the benches to admire the unique view of the large building perched in the green of a forest. With a little patience and time (the minimum is to recover from the steep climb) opportunities for shots of street photography certainly no shortage.
-------------------------------------------------
Dal Mirador de San Nicolas si gode una magnifica vista sull'Alhambra di Granada, il castello fortezza che domina la città andalusa dal tempo della dominazione araba in terra spagnola. A ogni ora del giorno (e presumo della notte) le persone si siedono sul muretto e sulle panchine per ammirare il panorama unico del grande edificio arroccato immerso nel verde di un bosco. Con un po' di pazienza e tempo (quello minimo, sindacale, è per riprendersi dalla ripida salita) le occasioni per scatti di street photography certamente non mancano.
"Forest Conservation in the East Usambara Mountains, Tanzania"
By Alan Charles Hamilton, R. Bensted-Smith, IUCN Tropical Forest Programme
The above book can be previewed at the following address:
books.google.co.ke/books?id=mdjQRmdKl-oC&pg=PA4&l...
Mr Inima's MSc thesis is titled " The hydrological effects of logging in the East Usambara Forest"'
The thesis was sponsored by African Network of Scientific Institutions(ANSTI), DAAD and International Union for Nature Conservation(IUCN).
The thesis was supervised by Dr Michael Bruen of Galway University of Ireland. It was submitted to the University of Dar Es Salaam for the award of degree in 1991.
In the thesis Mr. Inima examines the changes in the flow regimen of the Sigi river in the Tanga region during the 1970 and 1980s',a time when the catchment was experiencing much logging of the forest.
The method of study involved the quantification of the hydrological role of the forest by comparing runoff from recently deforested areas with that from virgin forest.
The study was based on the Sigi streamflow data. Other data used were collected from field studies of stemflow, through falls and surface run off plots.
The method of analysis included the study of the statistical moments of the unit hydrograph, time series analysis and the Nash Cascade Model.
The conclusion reached is that the logging of the East Usambara mountains is having an adverse impact on the flow regimen of Sigi river.The flow modulating role of the forest ,captured by the master recession curve, has diminished by about 15 % during a period of 10 years.The flood hydrograph peaks have increased by about 5% during the same period.
The recommendation of the thesis is that measures should be taken to curb the logging of the forest if the water supply in the Sigi River is to be sustained.
A brew with some favourite mugs from Finland. Taika, the winter forest. Capturing the rising steam was harder than I expected.
A tall beautiful blonde who likes a bit of fun with a great smile and a unique sense of fashion.... What more could a guy ask for?

This project is part of the Ars Electronica Garden Dubrovnik/Zagreb by KONTEJNER and the EMAP group exhibition Quarantine.
The multimedia project Stranger to the Trees explores the complementary coexistence of microplastics and trees as carbon sinks. How do trees and microplastics coexist in forests, capturing carbon in the time of the climate crisis? Combining video, interactive sound and sculpture, Stranger to the Trees queries the response of forest ecosystems to the ubiquitous and irrevocable dispersal of microplastics around the Earth. Austen is focusing on the coexistence of birch trees with microplastics and developing artistic and DIY scientific research methods to explore this.

This mist-laden forest captures the fleeting moment between autumn’s final breath and winter’s quiet arrival. Golden larches stand alongside evergreens, their fading leaves a reminder of fall, while the encroaching fog hints at the cold stillness of winter. The complete silence in the air amplifies the sense of stillness, as the scene feels suspended in time—both transient and eternal. Duncan Rawlinson’s photograph beautifully conveys the timelessness of this transition, evoking a sense of quiet that stretches beyond the changing seasons.
