I end my safari experience in Madikwe, South Africa with this unusual tree captured at sunset. Marie, my guide, just knew I would be thrilled when i saw this unusual wild creation of nature. i am sorry to say that she didn't tell me the story behind how it was created. Maybe having it be a mystery is more appropriate for such a wild thing.
in future days, I'll start adding pictures of Mozambique and when they are completed we will return to South Africa with more safari scenes.

In my search for the ultimate Aspen tree capture, I headed towards Southern Colorado in the San Juan Mountains for these images. The colors started to pop towards the end of the trip and the only thing we didn't get was snowfall in the upper elevations. The first one is a wide pano of a grove of Aspen trees with some great colors in the foliage. We took Laci's Rav 4 on a few mountain passes and for the first time put the car in "trail mode" which was a lot of fun. Who else is a fan of these trees?
Here is another interesting tree capture from that same winter walk as my previous picture. It was a great atmospheric morning, just me and the freshly snow covered countryside.
Small stand of trees captured with the rising sun near the village of Kettleshulme. It's clear how the wind has shaped the trees.

An adjusted image, the original had a blue graduated filter which has then had the effect exaggerated in Lightroom
This pair of trees captures my attention each time I pass. Their trunks have split and opened, and their growth is strange and twisted, yet they bud and leaf come the spring. Captured here framing another tree behind.

If you like my photographs, why not consider buying a print of one of my images at captures.life? Please note that I haven't yet finished building the site and putting in all of the terms and conditions and policies, but the bits that involve buying a print, having it delivered, and contacting me if anything goes wrong are working just fine...
The 'scribbles' on the bark of these trees are made by the larvae of tiny moths, which burrow under the bark. Like many eucalypts, scribbly gums lose their old bark each year, and when they do so the trails of the larvae can be seen. The trees captured in these photographs were recovering from fire, which makes their bark particularly bright and colourful.

I live near Portland, OR, and have been eagerly watching the Japanese Garden, waiting for the perfect moment when the fall colors hit their peak. Today, they may have not been at their peak, but I loved the variation in color! Despite the relentless rain, which soaked everything in sight, the weather turned out to be a blessing in disguise—it kept the crowds away, leaving me to enjoy the peaceful beauty almost entirely on my own. Here’s my interpretation of the iconic tree, captured in all its vibrant glory amidst the rain-soaked tranquility.
An old tree and Utah red rock and sand. I am attracted to old dead trees. Captured in September 2020, with a film era Pentax-F 50mm/F1.4. (K1AC8409)
I reflection of my favourite tree captured in the sunglasses of my wife. Taken in Norfolk, England between the villages of Barney and Fulmodeston.
Another large Oak tree captured in the early morning quiet.
This image was taken in the chill of February, many months ago; back when the earth was spinning on it's axis a little further away from the sun than it is right now, and temperatures were much cooler than they are today,
I love capturing a good 'lone tree' when I find one. Typically, they are very photogenic, and they don't move around a lot, or dart about annoyingly while I'm framing up a shot, which is always nice.
I have however found over the years that these lone trees can be quite cunning. They seem to slip into hiding when I'm out and about with my camera looking for pictures, only to reappear when I don't have any gear with me at all. It's quite frustrating,
But now I have a system I've developed to resolve this problem, and I use modern technology to combat these issues.
Now, if I spot a nice tree while out with no camera, I just use my smart phone's maps app to help me out. I'll drop a pin to mark the tree's location. That way I know I can always come back for pictures when I have my camera with me.
Then, as I've developed this system, I'll completely forget to put a name for the location I've just marked, or give it a description. That's because I'm always in too big of a hurry. Plus, I really don't know how to use my phone very well. So now, I have dozens of pins dropped in the app with just vague addresses and random GPS coordinates for a description, and not a clue what I was marking the locations for in the first place. Each pin could be a tree... or it could be that abandoned road grader I found and marked six months ago.
It's a great system, and it works well if you enjoy driving about on a mysterious scavenger hunt trying to find what you've really already found.
It's an adventure.

From this morning's drive: I spotted the Songdal River fog and darted down into this field where I walked a 90 degree arc around this tree capturing multiple exposures. These are then treated using my secret blend of herbs and spices and overlaid to produce the final image in Pep Ventosa style!
Our plans to visit the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge were thwarted by road work, so we pivoted to the Llano Seco Unit. On our way, something incredible caught our eye: a huge, empty nest perched by the Sacramento River. Right across from it, a magnificent Osprey sat atop a tree.
Capturing this moment was a challenge, as we were on a narrow bridge on a very busy road. We had to carefully time our stop, waiting for a lull in traffic to quickly pull over and snap a picture of this awesome find.
Avenue of trees captured in Dorset, I liked this particular crop as the trees look like they have formed a heart shape...
Eagle heads up into the branches with its fish in tow. The soft morning lighting and tracking by the camera made this pretty capture possible. Liked how the dead leaves and branches here combined to make a painted looking bokeh too as the eagle makes it way into the trees.

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.
The American baseballer might have been referring to the Northland's winters. Another 4 inches (10 cm) of fresh white coated the trees again yesterday, putting a temporary halt to the thaw happily finally begun. As I view this scene from my deck, the sun is out, the temperature rising, the snow is already dropping from the trees, and the icicles have resumed their dripping as several feet of snow begins its descent from the roof. We've a long way to go, but I believe it may be that Spring has finally decided to take a stand.
[Note: For those thinking the green in yesterday's image represented new leaves, allow me to gently disabuse you of that notion. It was the pine trees captured by the light creating the illusion. It will be some time yet before any new foliage is seen on our deciduous friends. As you can see here, the oaks haven't even shed last year's foliage.]
Here is once again a view of my beloved solitary tree, captured as summer was coming to an end. The photo, taken with a Polaroid 1000 Land Camera, remains one of my most treasured moments. To my great sorrow, I have now discovered that this wonderful old maple has been cut down — such a heartbreaking piece of news.
Aged oaks with plagiotropic and slanted branches bearing rather autonomous shoot systems that look as small trees. Captured near Pushchino, Moscow region
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.
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.
