Trees at big hill springs. Playing around with motion blur

A lone hawthorn tree in amongst the limestone pavements up on Twisleton scar.

Although it was a rather dull day it was a grand day for a walk & take a little time to explore this most unusual Yorkshire landscape. We had to keep Mutley away from the limestone pavements as the gaps between the rocks were between 2 & 6 feet deep !!! & he is less than 1 foot tall LOL ;-)

 

Raw file processed in Lightroom 4, then converted to mono in Silver efex pro 2 using a high structure smooth preset, with a blue filter. Niose reduction applied with Topaz denoise 5. Topaz seems to work much better than Imagenomic in retaining detail whilst smoothing out the noise in the sky.

 

A big thanks to Paul Sutton { postscriptphoto } for the directions to get to this spot :-)

Here's another shot of the male Tree Swallow taken a little while ago at our little marsh.

I must learn to look at my images before processing and uploding to flickr.

 

This one is shaper than the previous.

Trees are the roots of life

Here's another Tree Swallow from yesterday at Anchorage Trail. When he popped his head out of the box I was very surprised. He stayed with his head out for a few seconds, probably scared of my lens pointing right at him!

I like shooting trees from the ground upward for some interesting perspectives. I particularly like how they look almost like lightening bolts at this time of year!

Gnarly old almond trees near Morera de Montsant, an unusual sight among all the vineyards. The white flowers are wild radishes.

...It's hard to get the perspective of this group of trees circled around the old Shagbark Hickory tree with a photo. Kind of reminds me of a natural Stonehenge. haha

Bottle tree in the Australian Garden in The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens :)

 

Narrow-leaved bottle tree (Brachychiton rupestris) is a tree in the family Malvaceae, endemic to Queensland, Australia. It earned its name from its bulbous trunk, which can be up to 3.5 metres (11 ft) in diameter at breast height. Reaching around 10–25 metres (33–82 ft) high, the bottle tree is deciduous, losing its leaves seasonally, between September and December. In the first stages of growth, it's very slow-growing, and the formation of the unique bottle shape is not visible until the tree is about 5 to 8 years old. Aboriginal people made use of the trees through eating the roots of young plants and by consuming secretions from the trunk that were induced by wounds. Fibre obtained from the species was used to make nets. The leaves have also been used for fodder. Bottle trees are commonly found planted in streets and parks, on farms, and as features in gardens. The species has been cultivated as an indoor plant and a bonsai subject.

 

Australian garden is located directly below and parallel to the Subtropical Garden. This five-acre open expanse of trees and shrubs was opened to the public in 1964. More than 100 of Australia's some 700 Eucalyptus species grow in the garden and also other plants typical for Australia.

 

The Huntington Library, Art Museum and Botanical Gardens is a collections-based educational and research institution established by Henry E. Huntington and his wife in San Marino, California. In addition to the library, the institution houses an extensive art collection with a focus on 18th and 19th century European art and 17th to mid-20th century American art. The property also has specialized botanical landscaped gardens. The Huntington's botanical gardens cover 120 acres (49 ha) and showcase plants from around the world. The gardens are divided into more than a dozen themes, including the Australian Garden, Camellia Collection, Desert Garden, Herb Garden, Japanese Garden, Lily Ponds, Palm Garden, Rose Garden, the Shakespeare Garden, Subtropical and Jungle Garden, and the Chinese Garden.

Ogród Australijski na terenie Ogrodów Biblioteki Huntingtona :)

 

Drzewo butelkowe (Brachychiton rupestris) to drzewo z rodziny Malvaceae, endemiczne dla Queensland w Australii. Swoją nazwę zawdzięcza bulwiastemu pniu, przypominającemu butelkę, którego średnica może dochodzić do 3,5 metra. Osiąga około 10–25 metrów wysokości i traci liście sezonowo, od września do grudnia. W pierwszych fazach wzrostu drzewo butelkowe rośnie bardzo wolno, a ukształtowanie się unikalnego kształtu butelki jest widoczne dopiero w wieku około 5 do 8 lat. Aborygeni wykorzystywali drzewa, zjadając korzenie młodych roślin i spożywając wydzielinę z pnia powstałą w wyniku nacięcia. Włókno pozyskiwane z drzew butelkowych używane było do produkcji sieci. Liście wykorzystywano także jako paszę. Drzewa butelkowe są powszechnie sadzone na ulicach i w parkach, na farmach oraz jako elementy ozdobne w ogrodach. Gatunek ten był uprawiany jako roślina doniczkowa oraz w formie bonsai.

 

Ogród Australijski, położony bezpośrednio poniżej i równolegle do Ogrodu Subtropikalnego, otwarty obszar o powierzchni 5 akrów, porośnięty drzewami i krzewami został otwarty dla publiczności w 1964 roku. W ogrodzie rośnie ponad 100 z około 700 australijskich gatunków eukaliptusa, a także inne rośliny typowe dla Australii.

 

Biblioteka Huntingtona, Muzeum Sztuki i Ogrody Botaniczne to instytucja edukacyjna i badawcza oparta na zbiorach, założona przez Henry'ego E. Huntingtona i jego żonę w San Marino w Kalifornii. Oprócz biblioteki instytucja posiada bogatą kolekcję dzieł sztuki, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem sztuki europejskiej XVIII i XIX wieku oraz sztuki amerykańskiej od XVII do połowy XX wieku. Wokół biblioteki rozciągają się specjalistyczne ogrody botaniczne, które zajmują powierzchnię ok. 49 ha i prezentują rośliny z całego świata. Ogrody są podzielone na kilkanaście tematów, w tym ogród australijski, kolekcja kamelii, ogród pustynny, ogród ziołowy, ogród japoński, stawy liliowe, ogród palmowy, ogród różany, ogród szekspirowski, ogród subtropikalny i dżungla oraz ogród chiński.
