It snowed again. We did get a lot snow this year. But the wind is always too strong so the the trees and buildings are never got covered. The magic winter wonderland scene has not been seen so far.
So I went to visit my solo_tree again hope the changing clouds would make it special. After 2hrs and 500 shots, my solo_tree never give me the look I wanted. Maybe it was because that I did not know what to do. Or I have to find a different tree. Oh well, I like this tree a lot but it is with other trees. Wish it were alone.

solo tree
I drove 5000 miles the last few weeks and I found my fair share of spots to park my car and shoot photos and this tree was one of the best random spots.
This is 20 50mm photos stitched.

Scene captured during a day trip to the Waterloopbos in the Netherlands: seats surrounding a solo tree on the long walk in the adjacent Voorsterbos.
Carmel, CA. On the "17 mile Drive" along the coast, one of the main attractions is the "Lone Pine" that grows high on a rocky promontory. Over 250 years old, the tree is actually a Monterey Cypress, a rare, local species.
I don't do textures!!!

Keeping within the theme of within the frame. I'm more likely to look around the little window of the viewfinder to check what might be in the picture that I don't want...and what is there that I do, than to check if I'm in focus. :-) In this case, the fallen branch in the foreground is what I felt needed to be in; otherwise, it was just another picture of a solo tree. :-D
I love the Central Coast of California and have returned many times over the years. From our vacation rental, looking out from the top of one of the hills that form the Edna Valley, I was afforded ever-changing views of this magical landscape. March 21, 2018
Edge of the Light - Yosemite Valley. Yosemite National Park, California. October 31, 2009. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
Late afternoon autumn light falls across a grove of trees on the Merced River with the cliffs of Yosemite Fall beyond.
(larger)
On the weekend of October 31 and November 1 I made my annual "Yosemite Valley Fall Color" trip to The Valley - to photograph autumn subjects including the maple, dogwood, oak, and cottonwood trees. While some say that these trees may not provide the same kind of color found in New England, they still draw me back to the Valley every autumn.
This photograph was made in one of the busiest and most popular tourist viewpoints in the Valley, in Leidig Meadow near the chapel. On a busy high season day, perhaps hundred of people will briefly park their cars here, get out, point their cameras up, and make (another) photograph of Yosemite Falls. In some ways this sounds like just about that last place that I would want to photography, but I've come to like the late afternoon light in this meadow, especially in the autumn as the grasses turn brown, the cottonwood trees along the Merced start to lose their leaves, and the low angle of the sun creates interesting back-lighting and shadows.
I'd like to say that I planned to capture exactly this lighting, with the edge of the sun/shadow line falling just across this band of trees and picking up the small tree to the left of the larger group, but that would be a bit of an exaggeration. In truth, I did plan to shoot the trees against the shadowed background before the light left them too, but I was thinking more about having the background cliffs in shadow than I was about the trees right behind the cottonwoods. So I was shooting something else when I happened to look up and see that these trees were just barely catching the last light and that the one solo tree on the left was slightly set off from the others. - so I quickly set up this composition and managed to make a few exposures before the light quickly left the trees.

A bit of a boring shot of what's left of my encyclopedia ( some of it got eaten by termites) I would have loved to do something on "the tree of knowledge" but I just didn't have time or motivation to go hunt for a big solo tree somwhere.lol we had a big storm here last night, we were lucky in my area as it didn't get too bad, we only lost the lock that was bolted to our massive gate when it slammed shut in the wind. ( Grant I thought I told you to shut it!! lol)

GGCCFFRRSS: Gorgeous Green Calm Central Florida Fabulous Rural Roadside Sweet Scene seemed like a good title for this iPhone 6S+ photo I took while driving on I-75 through Central Florida, near Bushnell, heading home to Apollo Beach.
The main reason I took the photo was seeing that solo tree in the left third of the photo, surrounded by a green pasture with cows grazing idly as a stunning adventure filled Friday was coming to a double dose of delights.
NO color editing or processing of ANY kind in this stunning photo. Since there is no way to keep a phone perfectly level even standing still, it was a surprisingly level photo.
But I adjusted it merely about 1 degree clockwise, erased 2 road signs on the other side of the highway, filled in my name and cloned the edges after rotation to fill the gaps, but did not do ANY editing or processing on these absolutely perfect colors captured by the iPhone.

I took this facing east, opposite to the previous colourful posts of the sunset Jay and I saw from atop the Bickerton Hills. There was a thin band of hazy cloud stretched across the horizon – far beyond the glowering overcast sky above my head – the fading light it gave off was enough to silhouette the tree and the solitary hill-like cumulus that idled its way across the dusky sky.
This is not a scene you'd normally expect to see from this vantage point. Until recently the view to the horizon would have been blocked by a mature stand of birch and pine woodland. But, Natural England, the government environment advisory body who works with the owners of the hills, The National Trust, ordered the NT to clear fell the woodland in an attempt to preserve one of the last bastions of heathland in this country. Bizarre to think that, as a species, we've now reached the stage where we have to stop a natural process happening by destroying nature, in order to save a natural habitat that is on the verge of becoming extinct, just because of humanity's inexorable onslaught upon this planet in the first place.
On the bright side, it does mean that the flora and fauna peculiar to the heathland environment will have a safe enclave (at the expense of the flora and fauna living there in the first place!) from which to survive until things get better i.e. we humans show respect and love for this world, and live in harmony with it rather than exploit and abuse it as we do now… Naive? Probably, but I can dream!
The clearance of the woodland has also meant new vistas and pov's have opened up for the photographer. Fortunately, the solo trees that remain are beautiful examples of birch, pines and mountain ash, all making for great subjects, which means I now have new opportunities for image making in a location that had become very familiar photographically…I've already daydreamed about what this place will possibly look like in fog, snow, early morning sunlight etc. Funny how life works, eh! :-)
Well, the curtain falls on the days of Christmas and the madness abates somewhat, meaning time for photography, flickr, walks, snow, frost, light and living…and photography and flickr! I hope everyone's survived the last two days with some semblance of sanity, only a slight increase in your waist lines and a wallet that isn't on life support. See you soon! :-)
