The Photo Forum weekly challenge is to be a macro with the subject either something old or something blue. Or both.

a little evergreen, juniper or red cedar many debate over this trees name, juniper berries but smells like cedar.This macro shot was the loser for the toss up on green and black.

Taken @Grand Canyon......Do you know the gin is made out of juniper berries?

 

"Distilled gin is produced exclusively by redistilling ethanol of agricultural origin with an initial strength of 96% ABV (the azeotrope of water and ethanol) in stills traditionally used for gin, in the presence of juniper berries and of other natural botanicals, provided that the juniper taste is predominant."

July 2023

I have not been out much this year dealing with medical issues. finally got out for a few on July 16 and got a few image. This is one of my favorite butterflies. the color is amazing on these little gems. About the size of your thumb nail they are hard to find, but well worth the search to me.

A walk around part of the Pole Creek Ranch in Sisters, Oregon took me by a row of old juniper trees. The bark on this one was glowing in the morning sun. Juniper trees are common in central Oregon but most I have seen are much smaller than this one.

My little buddy is fearless. He comes in for some water no matter how close I may be with my camera. The other day one landed on my hat !!

I can assure it looked the same 70 years ago, but I had no camera with me then.

 

Juniper’s scent is a prayer carried by the wind, a whisper of ancient wisdom...

end of the month.( this has to be one of the warmest January's on record ) You guys that live on the other side of the pond seem to be getting what we normally should be expecting for this time of the year. ( southern Europe and places subjected to the Gulf Stream seem to be getting hammered )

The berries are in fact "seed cones" which need 3 years to ripen.

If you're Shoshone you call it paγi̵nappi̵h. Otherwise, you may call it pogonip or just freezing fog. Whatever your vernacular, it is beautiful if you can stand the chill of being out in it. We’ve had a pretty nice little dose of it over the last couple days around parts of Lassen County. I’ve found that juniperus trees like, say, junipers are well suited to catch a bunch of the frost when it forms. I thought this scene looked pretty neat at the north end of the Willow Creek Valley on this morning as the sun to camera-right battled to cut the fog (and perhaps add a second digit Fahrenheit to the ambient temperature).

When a juniper dies, its wood lingers for many decades, gaining character as it erodes. Skeletons of big trees appear as natural works of art; this one caught my eye for its contrasts with the rounded sandstone mounds around it and for its background.
