Even the golden leaves of this lovely tree captured at Lanercost Priory in Northumberland, UK several years ago cannot lighten the sadness that I feel today at the news that my favorite nephew has cancer.

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.
"Clash of the Seasons"
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.
I watched as this Red-Tailed Hawk grabbed a junco from under our birdfeeders. I went to get the camera and she was still up in a tree with her capture. She swiveled her head around to make sure I was not going to interfere with her lunch.
An adjusted image, the original had a blue graduated filter which has then had the effect exaggerated in Lightroom
A variety of birds, including this Golden-Cheeked Woodpecker feed on the African Tulip tree. Captured while on vacation in Mexico.
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.
Blenheim Park, Oxon. Pentax Spotmatic SPII, 35mm lens, Bergger Pancro 400 @400 in ID-11.
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...
During a wander around a local wood, on a misty moody morning, I came across this facade of a small house nestled into the root of this tree. It raises the question “who lives in a place like this?” Well, obviously from the sign on the door, Penny.
A lone Hawthorn tree, captured at Went Hill, Birling Gap.
Special thanks to Edd Allen for directions....and thanks for viewing :-)
Colors in the clouds over the peaks, with some low light on the lone pine tree. Captured in Banff National Park.

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)
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!
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.

Standing alone yet proud in the calm waters of Lake Wanaka, the iconic Wanaka Tree captures the essence of quiet resilience. Framed by serene reflections and distant mountains, this beloved symbol of New Zealand’s South Island offers a moment of stillness and beauty that speaks to the soul. Whether basking in golden light or shrouded in mist, it remains timeless in its quiet grace.
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.

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.
