Taken in Columbus Belmont State Park, TN. Really like how the limbs on the tree look against the night sky.
It was a more or less starry night when I decided to take my camera to go out at midnight. When I arrived at the top of the small hill the full moon and the upcoming clouds created an interesting atmosphere which I tried to capture in this picture.
We can shoot the maples on the tree.
We can shoot the maples on the ground.
We can shoot the maples in the water!
I believe water is always friend to photographers as it creates many possibilities of composition including reflection and long expsoure etc.
These are maples in the small creek at Queen Elizabeth Park taken this afternoon.
Happy weekend!

Coming to the end of our Easter trip, we stopped for a walk on the Ridgeway (an area of elevated downland in Wiltshire)
This has a last of winter feel. At least it did at the time ....

The juniper tree has always been a kind of magical evergreen to me. It's berries can be used to spice meet, make a kind of wild yeast, and provide antioxidants and vitamins.
The tree stands beside a circular trail which circumscribes the site of an Iron Age hill fort. Around this trail are several ancient beech trees such as this one. On the outer side of the trail are steep wooded slopes. On the inside can still be seen remnants of the 2000 year old stone fortifications. And within the oval shaped platform of the fort itself lie several Celtic burial mounds, now overgrown of course. Incidentally according to the medieval historian, Geoffrey of Monmouth the location was also the site of a 5th century wooden fortress named Caer Guorthegirn , where the fugitive usurper King Vortigern took refuge whilst fleeing from the brothers Uther Pendragon and Ambrosius Aurelianus. Some years prior to this Vortigern had murdered the boys' father King Constans while the two of them were safely in France. Upon coming of age the two young men returned to England to hunt Vortigern down and avenge their father. It was at Caer Guorthegirn that they finally caught up with him and burnt him alive inside his own fortress. Ambrosius then took the crown of England till his death in battle, upon which it passed to Uther, who according to legend was the father of King Arthur.
A lone tree on a hillock - one a hill. Near Butterton, Staffordshire. Monochrome conversion by my own customised CIE algorithm, achieved in software I wrote myself.
This beautiful tree is a Japanese Maple, and is in the Japanese Garden in Washington Park, Portland. We are just getting some really beautiful fall color now.
My thanks to you all for your wonderful comments and fave's! It is heartwarming and inspiring to me.
Something different. No bokeh today (sometimes I've got to do it). I had to stand in this spot for a while to get the path with no people on (there are some people in the distance though), but every time I tried to get a shot, someone would walk/cycle/skateboard into my shot. Now, if I trying for bokeh people, that would be fine, but instead, I probably looked like I was lost or something just standing there. :)
Happy Thursday! The weekend is in sight! I've looking forward to some quality time with my camera. I haven't picked it up for several weeks, and with the days getting really short, it's hard to find time or the light to get anything worth it. I always seem to be using the same lens recently, which is fine, but I do think I need to take some other lenses out for a spin this weekend. Maybe The Beast (macro lens)... or I might try and see if the garden birds co-operate with my big zoom lenses. We'll see... :)

The weather is miserable, it’s windy and it’s raining, but despite that the trees are still looking quite nice, so it was just a matter of pointing the camera out of the window to get this shot.

Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
Beauty is all around us if we pay a little attention to it. A simple ray of sunlight can transform an insignificant landscape into a magnificent one.
I'm not a big fan of winter brown, but leafless trees do have some charm of their own revealed only when their leaves are gone... I think this is Osage Orange bark but any confirmation or correction would be appreciated.
In the beauty, among the trees
Face caressed by the summer breeze
Hear the birds sing in the skies
See the clouds, float past your eyes
Walk between the spreading trees
Feel the lovely summer breeze
That falls upon your waiting face
As past you, beauty it does race
Beautiful lush moss-covered trees along a woodland hiking trail bordering Witty’s Lagoon, Metchosin, Vancouver Island, BC.
A wee one from a while back that I just have a soft spot for. I love the menacing air of these trees - almost a lynch mob of trees.
