52 Tuesdays Challenge #5: Tree
Nature is amazing. Some of the scenery I see along the way shows me that there is no end to the creativity of nature. So the word this Tuesday is Tree.
Being as I travel through a lot of rural areas and have been blessed to travel to the Caribbean I had a few tree photos stashed in my library.
This first photo is from San Juan, Puerto Rico. Along the Princess Walk there are trees that are completely twisted!
This second photo is from Gentry, Arkansas. There is little lake there hidden in the woods where the autumn sun made the colors just gorgeous!
This tree was in a shopping center in Oregon in the fall. The colors were so strong that I had to play with the photo a bit to give it a different look. I like the effect that I chose for it.
So, now you know what is next! Show me your trees!!!
Black & White Sunset
This sunset seems to really come to life with the change to black and white. I took it this past fall in Oklahoma. Enjoy!

Another Lovely Cardinal – picture from yesterday
Though this photo doesn’t have any snow or icicles on it I took it in the leaf barren trees of Arkansas. Cardinals are beautiful no matter what the setting.
Spot for a busy mind – picture from yesterday
Yesterday was a busy day for me at work with some bits of drama added into the picture. When I choose the photos for the pictures from yesterday I try to think of something that I am reminded of or that makes me feel better about the day before. Always trying to keep the positive! So in this choice I imagine sitting or laying under this tree listening to the bees that you always hear in the spring and seeing the pretty flowers while the breeze makes them whisper to you. And the nice weather with just that hint of warmness on your skin and perhaps the sun shining thru the limbs. Enjoy!
