I’m delighted to see another season burst forth with color and vigor but sad to acknowledge the cells in my body are having a difficult time bursting forth with anything that resembles… Continue reading Aging Gracefully
I’m showing pictures of the world’s largest tree and it is reportedly 2,000 years old! This tree is located in Oaxaca, Mexico, and one angle doesn’t do it justice, so I’m posting several angles of its massive trunk. I walked completely around this monster taking pictures of each side. It is magnificent and deserves to… Continue reading The Largest Tree, Thursday Tree, and Of Course, Christmas Trees
Several. years ago, I drove over Monarch Pass in southern Colorado on my way to my sister and brother-in-law’s home. At the time I was living in south central Texas where we didn’t see much snow, so I couldn’t resist taking some snowy tree pictures as I drove through ice and snow.

I found this grove of trees in Ireland a few years ago and loved the colors that highlighted their beauty. Find other remarkable tree pictures at https://www.happinessandfood.com/thursdaytreelove-75/
I’m guessing the growth of this tree is influenced by prevailing wind, but I loved the graceful angle of the branches. Found this on a stroll through a Paris, France park.

I couldn’t decide whether this picture should be in Norm’s Thursday Door Photo Challenge, Cee’s FOTD Challenge,or Happiness and Food Thursday Tree Love, so I’m putting it in all three.

Green is the prompt for this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge, and I am fascinated how many different shades of green appear in one place, i.e. a tree. From a yellow-green to a deep dark green, all on one tree, is a wonderful treat from nature. See more green pictures at https://weeklyprompts.com/2019/01/05/photo-challenge-green/
