The North Island's not so famous tree captured on the Minolta Alpha 9. Having photographed this 2 or 3 times previously on digital, I decided to try analogue!

Shot for Smile on Saturday, theme "capture the time"
As time passes, trees grow and build circles around the center every year. Based on these circles, the exact age of the tree can be determined. So, in a way, trees capture time in their inner system.
I have returned to my favourite, magical location, the secret little world enclosed by the lazy meanders of the river Adda just downstream the eastern arm of the lake Como (its real name being Lario), just before it begins to flow into the Padan Plain. It is a hidden gem under everyone's eyes - surrounded as it is by busy roads, towns, and productive sites, as soon as you get on the river's banks you feel like you have entered an entirely different world. I think that the wetlands nestled between the meanders have preserved the place, making it less than amenable to settlements (but very amenable to a sheer variety of birds).
At 5° C and a substantially clean sky, I would have bet on the place being very misty, as it almost always is at early morning. Luckily I didn't, since I would have lost. The air was crystal clear, the place devoid of its usual mysterious ambiance (visit my album Silent banks to get an idea). I was lucky enough that Autumn was extremely generous with its treasures, and my sunrise session was not to go wasted, after all.
I was walking downstream, almost convinced that it was time to go back home, when a couple of twin old, large plane trees captured my attention. While framing, in the most serendipitous way, I was abruptly aware of the interplay of lights and shadows that was quietly unfolding behind my back while I was walking, a perfect yin and yang of day and night at the boundary between the two opposite poles - and that golden, fiery speck of a young plane tree right at the center of the dance, set against the dark hillside. Since such light conditions can last mere minutes, I hurriedly set up my tripod to capture the drama, not caring about the grass in the foreground being decently sharp or not.
I hope that you enjoy this new post of mine and wish you a nice Sunday.
I have processed this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1.3/-0.67/0/+0.67/+1.3 EV] by luminosity masks with the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal" exposure shot), then I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.
Along the journey I tried the inverted RGB blue channel technique described by Boris Hajdukovic, which has contributed a lot to the rendering of the trees and reflections on the right side of the framing, enhancing the light transfixing the foliage. Raw files processed with Darktable.
Stanway Gloucestershire has a cricket ground that possesses a pavilion, which is built on staddle stones, and was the gift of the author J. M. Barrie who stayed at Stanway House in the 1920s.
This little copse of backlit Autumnal trees captured my eye while walking in the North Wessex Downs near Baydon. The background trees were pointed out to me as looking like little lollipops, so the name stuck.

Trees that stand alone in harsh landscapes have always been a favorite subject of mine to photograph. Last winter, while I was in Zion National Park, I came across a tree on the eastern side that seemed to be growing against a cliff. For my first image, I positioned myself directly under the tree, capturing it against the blue sky. For my second shot, I wanted a sideways view. This proved challenging because the tree jutted into the road, so I had to walk back quite a distance and use a 70mm focal length after climbing a cliff wall.
When visiting the gorgeous and rugged Southland region recently, we made a trip to Lake Monowai, an approx. 45 min drive from Te Anau. Lake Monowai and surrounding forests, are part of Fiordland National Park and Te Wāhipounamu – South West New Zealand – World Heritage area. This special part of Southland is known for its remote mountainous beauty and hydroelectric history. Also a great fishing spot! We experienced drizzle moody weather when we arrived late morning for our walk. Perfect conditions for some experimentation with long exposure. I loved this section of the track with old trees captured over time by the water. Very special.
Aged oaks with plagiotropic and slanted branches bearing rather autonomous shoot systems that look as small trees. Captured near Pushchino, Moscow region
A brilliant red Japanese maple, with the colourful windows in the Chemistry building at UBC as a backdrop, captured my attention. Along came a young man and the tree captured his attention also. As he held and considered a single leaf before capturing it with his phone camera, I captured the whole tableau.
Hopton Castle is situated in the village of the same name in Shropshire.England. Hopton Castle featured in the British TV series Time Team in 2010. A ruin since the early 18th century, it was partially restored between 2006 and 2011, and was officially re-opened to the public .In the
Civil War it was garrisoned for Parliament, besieged by the Royalist forces for three weeks, and refused an offer of honorable quarter in return for surrender, preferring to fight to the last man. Every man of the garrison was killed and the castle slighted and abandoned.

The meandering branch shapes of this shapely little dogwood tree captured my attention. A painterly treatment enhances the way the blossoms top off the tips of the branches. All put together, this little tree has the air of a dancer.

Captured at Black Point, SA.
Captured on a Particulary Misty morning at sunrise with this tree capturing the sunlight and lit mist.
You always feel alone and at peace when the air is full of mist...
I'd hoped to have ended the year with a Sunset, but having been out for a walk this morning in pouring rain, I resorted to this - the bokeh is our outside Christmas Tree captured before it rained at 7.30 am with the text added later Anyhow this concludes my 12th consecutive year of taking one picture a day.
Wishing all my Flickr friends a Happy Healthy New Year .
The burning question is will I start on my 13th year tomorrow ? ......
A capture of our first snowfall a few weeks ago while there were still autumn leaves left on the trees. Captured one morning a few blocks from home on the Iowa River with my iPhone. Winter is here, but I'd much rather hang onto fall a while longer.
A neighbor's crabapple tree. Captured this one on my morning walk with Boucle today.
Magical time of year with all the pink blossoms on trees.
A high key rendering of leaves from our persimmons tree. Captured with a film era Penfax-F 135mm/F2.8 wide open. Explore Nov. 6, 2020 #227.
Though many places had mist and fog in the Midlands on the 29th December, where I live had very little, but instead the day dawned bright and cold. I was hoping for enough mist to capture a few sunbeams, but instead caught a beautiful hazy glow just as the sun broke the horizon. I was able to contrast the resulting warm colours with the cold, frosty ground and icy trees, capturing this almost magical scene of Winter beauty.
For you Abby, you always loved it here.
Merry Christmas! How about some colors in the gray winter season. Captured in mid-October in Gothenburg.
I’m not hundred percent sure these are identified correctly but they resemble closely the Omphalotus Olearius Mushroom . Or it could be what they call in Dutch : Echte honingzwam . Please let me know if you believe them to be a different species
All the colors of the automn in an lonely tree.
Captured after to stop in the filling station near the hotel Glymur.

This huge tree captured my attention during my hike at Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge.
It reminds me the Ents that appear in The Lord of the Rings as ancient shepherds of the forest. Their name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word for giant (Wikipedia).
Well I'm a nerd and a fan of J. R. R. Tolkien :-D.
Small waterfall in El Jevero natural pool, Acebo (Caceres), mountain river flowing over granite rocks and autumn trees, captured with long exposure for silky water and a peaceful, serene atmosphere.
A breathtaking sunset over Dundarave Beach with dramatic clouds and silhouettes of palm trees. Captured using the TTArtisan 10mm F2 lens. I slightly increased the exposure to bring out details in the shadows, preserving the depth and texture in the darker areas.

Tree capture from:
Southern yellow-billed hornbill (Tockus leucomelas) in an acacia tree. Captured in May in Etosha National Park, Namibia, Africa. We found these birds to be somewhat shy, and they flew away at even a slow, stealthy approach in our truck. We did manage to capture a few good shots, and this was one of them.
Thank you for viewing, and many thanks for comments, positive or negative, as they are all a learning experience.

Before sunrise on a cold, clear autumn morning, fog rolled in and out of the Valley’s many meadows, providing an ethereal quality to these beautiful fall trees captured with my telephoto.
When I noticed this optical phenomen (you can read about this here) on the sky the first one in my life I attended lectures from astronomy, so after my observation I asked my professor about it . She said that it was a halo and said that she had never observed this in her life:) From this moment I've observed this phenomen many times (in the first month three ones) :) Maybe because I like looking at sun:)
I dedicated this photo for my flickr friend Malcolm thanking for his great photos (especially of trees - he is really a master of trees captures) and for his amazing comments (many of them bowled me over:) in my language (he isn't a Pole) :) Many many thx:)
