A classic Florida swim area, Juniper Springs Recreation Area lies in the middle of Florida's Ocala National Forest. Its namesake spring, shown here, features a concrete enclosed pool next to an iconic old mill building. Juniper Creek, which flows from the spring to Florida's second largest lake, Lake George, is home one of Florida's most notable and strenuous paddling trails which launches not far outside the swim area. Nearby Fern Hammock Spring, also contained within the park, is not available for swimming but is a treat for photographers and nature lovers.
Despite reading 'London Waterloo' on the destination indicator, the train is heading to Windsor, running a strike period service. These units rarely seem to show the correct destination!
This is a shot from Dead Horse Point in Utah. Dead Horse Point is supposed to be a great location for photographs but I don't really see it. I think the views here are incredible, but they are too vast for photography - they're more for just sitting and looking. I did like this one of the (almost) full moon coming up over a twisted juniper. The peaks in the background are the Manti La Sals. The space in between is the mesas and canyons of Canyonlands National Park.
This is a beautiful Blaauwi Juniper , popular landscaping tree's in the early 1970's a cultivar from switzerland, . 20' tall with a 2' trunk. this cultivar has a slightly blueish foliage compared to the Shimpaku. I really feel in love with this tree , even though it need's some work on the foliage pad's , I like the branch placement and will probably pull them down a bit more and try to fatten the pad's. I also like how the trunk leans toward's the exposed root for support, for me it give's the tree an added line that will develope nicely.

Western Juniper, native to Oregonās High Desert, is known for its durability and rustic beauty. Resistant to rot and disease, Western Juniper is an ideal building alternative to cedars and redwood.
Western Juniper is not just a natural beautyāit's a natural survivor. Decades of fire suppression and past rangeland activity allowed this native tree to overtake the sagebrush. Now, it is encroaching into rangelands, using up precious water, and degrading habitat for sage grouse and other wildlife. Sustainably harvesting Western Juniper supports the restoration of Oregon rangeland to its natural state and returns more water and wildlife to the high desert.
