Ich stelle mir manchmal vor, dass Bäume eine eigene Wahrnehmung ihrer Umgebung haben. Für sie bewegen wir Menschen uns unglaublich schnell. Vermutlich bemerken sie uns gar nicht, weil wir in unsere Geschwindigkeit aus ihrer Sicht verschwinden.
Sometimes I imagine trees have their own perception of their surroundings. For them we humans move incredibly fast. Presumably, they do not notice us at all, because we disappear in our speed from their point of view.
Darkness fall at Oak Alley and the canopy of tree block out what light is left. As the night starts to settle in only the small amount of light from the house and sky filters through the massive trees at Oak Alley. DSC_7816
I decided to try what so many people do when they go to Cades Cove. This image of "the tree" was taken from the middle of the Cades cove loop road, out the driverside window of my car. There was no one behind me so I didn't hold up traffic to do it.
This is a view you get used to driving around Kangaroo Island. Fairly straight roads with trees on both sides. Not the most scenic drive but interesting.
Same location, new camera. Taken a few weeks ago when the canopy ha that spring feel. Taken at Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire
This was the other photo I was debating over for my Project 50 shot for today. I went with the rock and barnacles because I really liked how the colors popped. But I thought this one turned out well too, so I decided to post it.
I love the color and patterns of two of the trees in our yard. According to Wikipedia, the word 'chartreuse' was named after the color of a French liqueur that was made by the Carthrusian monks at the Grande Chartreuse monastery, located in the Chartreuse Mountains in 1764.
These imposing trees share the lineage with the tallest living organism on Earth-Hyperion, a Coast Redwood that is 379.7 feet tall!!! These trees are among the oldest living organisms as well. The ones that I saw were not nearly as large, but as they are protected in this forest, will hopefully one day grow that big. It is estimated that 95% of old growth Coast Redwoods have been logged.
