Driving through the Palouse of Eastern Washington State I came upon this tree and loved it's shape. I liked the sky in this so I framed it this way.
I have a thing for old barns. One day I may just do an entire series. A lot of people see a barn like this and think it's run down and falling apart. I see this barn as a life dedicated to intense labor, calloused hands, early mornings, blood and sweat... and strong black coffee.
Moon trees are trees grown from 500 seeds taken into orbit around the Moon by Stuart Rosa during the Apollo 14 mission in 1971.
This redwood was planted in Monterey's Friendly Plaza in 1976.
This beautiful tree was in the midst of the bush in the Kasigau Corridor REDD+ project area standing all by itself. We literally spent about an hour walking around the tree and photographing it.
Believe it or not trees are as precious in the project area as the wildlife. Rangers seek to stop people from slash and burn farming and others from simply cutting down the trees for charcoal. Instead citizens are offered new alternatives, including new job opportunities, education, and alternative methods of creating charcoal. Audi supports the Wildlife Works initiative to protect the environment as part of its A3 e-tron carbon offset program.
This is a night shot of some of decorations on a Christmas tree at one of the entrances to a local subdivisions.
Took a walk along 5 Mile lane in Barry but nothing to see but cars and trees. Got home and set about making this walk worth the trouble and created the simple trees into a range of interesting images that made me feel better.
Enjoy, and see moreof my range of styles and projects in my online Portfolio at :-
On the small island in a frozen lake stood this tree and just waiting to be photographed.

This tree stands opposite Goodrich Castle. It appeared very dominant standing in the reddish-brown field, against the blue sky, all alone..!
A few weeks ago, I drove out to to Surprise View near Fox House with intentions of photographing the super moon rising. Unfortunately, the weather turned really overcast while I was out there so I didn't see much of the moon.
However, when I arrived at Surprise View, I was greeted by this beautiful sunset and got this shot of the lone tree in Lawrence Field; all in all it wasn't a wasted trip.
In another stroke of good luck, the next morning, I did get a couple of shots of the super moon as it was beginning to set from my house.

Ross’s geese fly low past a tree at dusk, San Joaquin Valley
A small group of photographer friends spent (for the third year in a row) New Year's Day in California's San Joaquin Valley, greeting the dawn of 2015 by photographing it! Dawn wasn't the only attraction — we are also drawn here by the landscape, the incredible wildlife (geese, cranes, egrets, herons, ibises, pelicans, and much more), and the beautiful winter light in this part of California. We began our day in the pre-dawn soft and foggy light and ended it in post-dust light when it finally became to dark to photograph.
For me this simple photograph of a field, a tree, and some geese evokes many of the things that draw me back to this landscape every winter. Even on a day when the tule fog thins, the atmosphere rarely seems to fully clear, and the dusk light is soft and mysterious and full of colors. And at this hour the geese seem to be settling in for the evening, often collecting in large groups in fields of ponds. As they do, they often seem to fly low between groups, flowing across the still landscape and between trees like the wind itself or like the flow of water.
