If you've grown up on a farm or in the country I'm sure most of you have experienced the old tire swing in the tree, though I think they are seen in the city too. My husband and I were out driving last night and so I had to stop and take this shot, it reminded me of my youth, swinging on the tire trying not to get rope burn :-)
We had a beautiful drive along lake Ontario, at one point we stopped by the lake and I was able to watch a family of geese with their young and capture some images...they were beautiful to watch. I've posted a new blog with some of their images, check it out if you'd like.
Well, not really, but it's looks like one?, It's actually a slice of tree trunk with some naturally stained rings and patterns...
'Skull Island here we come'...
High-fiving a snapped-off tree trunk.
'Gimme five' is "a request to give the speaker a "high five," that is, to slap their (usually) raised hand with one's own, as in a show of congratulation or celebration. "Five" refers to the hand's five fingers. "Gimme" is a colloquial form of "give me."

Earlier in the year I visited the small hamlet of Mistley, the site of a number of aged oak trees including this one, aptly named 'Old Knobbley'. Old Knobbley is an 800 year old Pendunculate Oak or English Oak (Quercus robur) with a trunk girth of 9.6m at a height of 0.3m, widening vastly as it rises.
It is a gigantic tree with a huge trunk, full of burrs and knots, although not particularly tall. It has survived an attempt to burn it down a few years ago and who knows what else it may have witnessed in the last 800 years or so.
I shall not give any further information about this marvel as it is the only tree in the UK, to my knowledge, to have its own website, book and facebook page.
This is a photo of the wood grain patterns in the trunk of a tree that was toppled by a winter storm in Shubie Park. The image has been mirrored and copied twice to be symmetrical. The detail is best seen full screen. The symmetry reveals the transcendent symbolism of the mandala form.

Late evening, it was getting dark, the sound of the waves covered the noise of the passing traffic higher on the hill, making a peaceful moment between, me and this amazing scene. I love this serene moments with a camera.

A macro view of the peeling bark of an arbutus tree (aka Pacific Madrone ) along a walking trail near Mackenzie Bight, Gowlland Tod Provincial Park, Vancouver Island, BC.
Arbutus is the only native broadleaf evergreen tree in Canada with rich orange-red bark that when mature naturally peels away in thin sheets, leaving a greenish, silvery appearance that has a satin sheen and smoothness. Arbutus bark is very rich in a substance used for tanning hides.
First Nations people have used Arbutus bark and leaves for medicinal purposes such as use for colds, stomach problems and tuberculosis.
Arbutus trees are generally found on sunny exposed rocky bluffs or hills with little moisture, often in coastal areas in proximity to the ocean. It is native to the Pacific Northwest and Northern and Central California regions.

Where two rivers meet each other at the Gulf in north Forida. These trees are either junipers or red cedars, which I can't find enough distinctive characteristics here to guess which kind (e.g., no blue berries or even foliage visible).
At the junction of the Wakulla and St. Marks Rivers, Fort San Marcos de Apalache, in the town of St. Marks, Florida. This is a small park and museum on the site of a Spanish fort first built here 400 years ago.

I spotted these sunken treetrunks the previous day as the rest of the group photographed the view from the road.
When we returned at dawn the next day, I made a beeline for this spot and then waited for first light. Not wanting the reflection to dominate, I chose not to wait for the mountains to be lit up.
I don't know what the others got from the road but I'm happy that I managed to get something a little bit different….
The blue tit might be famed for its bright, bold plumage, but it’s much more than just a pretty face. Spot it performing acrobatic displays while on the hunt for juicy caterpillars..Barnacle lichen
Looking like little barnacles growing on tree trunks, barnacle lichen is found mainly on the bark of living trees in ancient woods, and it is indicative of longstanding woodland conditions
