I have been told that there is a goddess in this tree. See if you can spot her strolling from right to left.
Coincidence? Probably... I like to think not.
This is a tighter crop of the photo "Trees Whisper". Thanks to the feedback from the critique group.
Cheers,

Managed to capture this amazing looking tree I pass on the way to work before it lost all its leaves.
Just a tree spoted when I was looking for a place to shoot nearby river view.

Sweltering hot Sunday afternoon. Invitation ( very welcome! ) to Art & Garden at this amazing sprawling "thinking-out-the-box" garden cum river cum forest. That's where the "buts" come in. The world and his wife all liked the idea, too. Lovely sleepy tucked-away village..so nowhere to park. Managed it eventually. Longish walk. Ok going hill but not so good trekking back up. Wandering and chatting was a joy..plants for sale..painted silk acrves, jewellery, sculpture..tea and cakes.. and further out..a rope bridge across the river and long snaking steel steps and rails zig zagging up high bankings taking me out of the sunlight into high rise dappled woodland..and ..whoaaa, suddenly, as the path lightened..this fantastic tree house, weathered and "right" amongst the trees. How could I not stop and draw. Total peace at the start..then zillions of equally eye-dazzled familes oohing and aaahing and banging into me as I blocked their path. Gave up at the end..but was very happy!!!
this field of barley has at least 3 trees left in it, for which i am grateful to the farmer, as it allows a good focal point at any given time of the year!!
Used the flash and caught the falling snow and the snow- covered trees from my back door. If you look closely you can see some colour in the birch trees, but is is pretty much a white world out there tonight!
I didn't know what to title this sketch. Of course it's of an extremely large (and 99% dead) chestnut tree on my property at the lake. Its so big that I couldn't fit it all on my page without loosing a lot of detail, so I began the sketch at mid-point. I thought of calling it 'Almost dead giant' but that was too gloomy. I also thought of calling it 'Hummingbird perch' because a tiny ruby throated hummingbird would perch itself on the same branch day-after-day for about a month. That title was too obscure. Finally, I ended up with the title above. Although the tree may be dead, it certainly attracts a lot of life - woodpeckers and nuthatches, squirrels and chipmunks, and tinier creatures. Unfortunately, large dead branches have been falling around the cottage lately and I fear that I'll have to remove it before long. Pity, it's so majestic.
Je ne savais pas comment appeler cette esquisse. Bien sûr, il est d'une très grande (et à 99 p.c. morte) noyer sur ma propriété au bord du lac. C'est tellement grand que je ne pouvais pas tout l'inclure sur ma page sans perdre beaucoup de détails, donc j'ai commencé l'esquisse à mi-parcours. Je pensais l'appeler « Géant prèsque mort», mais c'était trop mélancolique. Je pensais aussi de l'appeler " Perche de colibri», car un Colibri à rouge gorge minuscule se perchait sur la même branche jour après jour pendant environ un mois. Ce titre était trop obscure. Enfin, je me suis retrouvé avec le titre ci-dessus. Bien que l'arbre est peut-être mort, il attire certainement beaucoup de la vie - les pics-bois et sittelles, les écureuils et les suisses, et des créatures plus minuscules. Malheureusement, les grosses branches mortes ont tombé autour du chalet ces derniers temps et je crains que je vais avoir à l'enlever avant longtemps. Dommage, il est si majestueux.
Our house in the snow. We lost some major limbs from the live oak on the left. It used to be much taller, but at least it survived, and didn't bring the porch crashing down!
Today on Hampstead Heath playing with shadows in the low november sun the weather is cold my shadow touches the tree its all I need for inspiration. Maybe I am a tree whisperer who knows.
Five egrets roosting for the night. We saw a total of eight egrets and one heron settling in for the evening.
Tree tracks…perhaps
That’s all we are
Grains of sand
Twinkling stars
To be…..to love…..
To know the sun…..
And fade happily
When we are done

Tree Branching Pattern and Crown Architecture
The way tree branches form or split, follow the Fibonacci sequence. A main trunk will grow until it produces a branch, which creates two growth points. Then, one of the new stems branches into two, while the other one lies dormant. This pattern of branching is repeated for each of the new stems.
I took this from my backyard, you can see a nice tree full of flowers. Zoom in to get a better look if you wish.
Our Christmas Tree. There are decorations that go on the tree year after year & some new ones each year.
I never fully appreciate the tree until I spend some time up close and take in the little hidden places between the branches.
