Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday! One from last October here. A small stand of Caledodnian pines silhouetted against the dawn sky. As the sun rose the entire eastern sky was suffused with an orange glow. Shot using the Sony HX300
a small grove of Cryptomeria trees on the way to Cabuoco.

Two trees before sunrise. One taken only seven minutes after the other. Was very windy this morning and it blew in the clouds quickly. I arrived here an hour before sunrise and waited until after sunrise to get a better Image, but the sun was covered by the clouds until i packed up the camera and tripod. I never got the light i was waiting for. Just as i had walked 50 yards from this spot the sun decided to pop out, creating the light i was looking for and also a rainbow. This seems to be my luck with photography lately, always just missing the best moments by a minute
or two.
Trees and Light.

is it all one tree, or a cluster of cousins? can't quite be sure...
and it's another rainy morning here -- perhaps i should take my camera out again!
See the same tree from the other side and under other weather conditions.
... is not dead ! :o) It actually has leaves on one part of it in summer - hard to believe, isn't it? It's apparently the most photographed tree in Sutton Park unsurprisingly, owing to its architectural appeal. Took a shot of it while out with Zak today, so here it is!
This shot was taken a few weeks ago, on the road from Saddington to Gumley in Leicester-shire.

GBRf Class 66/7 No. 66737 'Lesia' approaches Branston, home of the famous Pickle and probably even more famous Marmite, while heading 4M34 0548 Southampton Western Docks - Doncaster IPort intermodal on 7th August 2021. Given the likelihood of more gales fuelled by our changing climate, I think I would be a little uneasy about having such tall trees so close to my house. The problem would be that a line possession would probably be required to deal with them. I wonder on whose side of the fence they are positioned?

I had been watching this mule deer buck browsing through a forest for more than an hour when he yawned a couple of times and went and layed down. Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.

Many people are starting to describe the loss of the massive BaoBab trees as "The Last March of the Wooden Elephants."
Baobabs thousands of years old could be succumbing to climate change, scientists fear. Botswana's Chapman's Baobab is the best-known victim of their sudden deaths. A national monument of Botswana, it was more than 82ft in circumference. On January 7 2016, its six trunks all collapsed and died.
Some of Africa’s oldest and most unusual trees have mysteriously started dying – and scientists think climate change maybe to blame. An exceptional number of baobabs, which are known to live for up to 2,000 years – and maybe longer – have died in the past 13 years, experts found.
Baobabs, also known as “dead rat” trees, after the shape of their fruit, are among the most distinctive plants in the world, with up to seven giant trunks that can look like pillars. They start growing as a single trunk but over time develops others. Thanks to their size, they contain hundreds of square meters of wood but have massive hollow centers.
Adrian Patrut, a Romanian professor of inorganic and radiochemistry, and colleagues used radiocarbon dating to analyze more than 60 of the largest and oldest baobab trees in Africa to try to find out how the trees could grow so large.
To their surprise, they found that since 2005, nine of the 13 oldest, and five of the six largest baobabs had either died or had their oldest parts collapse.
Their paper, published online this week in Nature Plants, suggests that climate change may be affecting the ability of the trees to survive.
Prof Patrut told The Independent that "El Nino - warm currents that travel east across the Pacific Ocean - had increased dry conditions over the past 20 years, leading to drought in Southern Africa, which was thought to be one factor in the trees’ demise." Further research is required to confirm their findings.

This is the front lawn to the Yerkes Observatory in Lake Geneva Wisconsin. The building is to the left of this scene. I took photos of it but due to the placement of the sun, it was pretty much all in shade.
As I was making my way back to the main road I noticed the sun peeking through the low hanging branches of this tree. So, to avoid leaving empty handed I stopped and grabbed this shot of the sunburst and enjoyed the shade from the tree for a few moments :-)
