Tree appreciation
View allAll Photos Tagged trees,
Sydney Cherry Blossom Festival is on over two weekends. I visited there last Sunday. Amazing number of people and I barely saw the flowers. I visited again yesterday (on Monday). Very cloudy but quiet and peaceful morning.
@ Japanese Garden at the Auburn Botanic Gardens
This towering, neighborhood tree stands on a vacant lot dwarfing the other trees around it. I often wonder what stories it could tell and how it came to dominate the horizon, defying storms and the sawblade. It has a covering of new leaves now, which gives me hope that my country and our democracy will endure through this time of "Trumpian" darkness.

This tree went down in a summer storm a few years ago. Now it looks like a tree man standing out in our field. Especially in a snow storm like the one we had yesterday.

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
The sky was blue and the leaves green intense, but I decided to turn it into my black and white.
* I'm grateful for visit, faves and comments of my photo.
Just two trees seemingly on their own sitting on the hillside . I stumbled across these and I just love trees so wanted to grab a capture albeit in the misty rain. This was when we hiked through the mountains in Glencoe.
PS: Away now travelling for the next few days to Phoenix so wont be online much but will try catch up as and when I can my flickr friends.
the imposing cropping is intended to envelop the viewer and help develop a more immediate connection with the photograph.
Después de unas semanas sin subir nada vuelvo a la carga con una fotografía de una bonita mañana de nieblas por este hayedo que no tardando mucho tocara volver a visitar.
