Pictures for Pam, Day 148: SSC: Tree Silhouettes


(+6 insets!) (please view large!)
I'm going to make this a quick write-up because it's getting late and I need to post my pictures for Saturday-Self Challenge! The theme this week is "Trees" so today I went around on our property looking for likely candidates. I found a good choice in our big meadow that shows our bulldozer in the background. I also took a picture of a huge old Oak tree that had been turned into a tree house many years ago. It had died by the time we moved there, the tree house long since decayed into ruin. Then, the ancient relic toppled over a few years ago. It makes me sad when I see this fallen friend but I do my best to honor it by capturing images when I can of the interesting things about it. The wood from the tree house has nails and old carpet and growing all over it are various kinds of moss and lichen. I've even found mushrooms there. Perhaps I should to a series on this departed fellow, I think that would be fun and give it some well-deserved immortality. :)
I turned and walked across our big meadow and made my way up to the base of our steep hillside. Looking back across our little valley, I saw the view which is my main image today--a line of trees marching along the far ridge. Cool.
I climbed up onto our hillside and at the top I got many pictures of the burned trees which are just skeletons now. Some had their tops broken off and stand like sentries. Another looked out over the valley and forest beyond. One of the silhouetted images shows the huge old madrone which I loved so dearly. Even though it looks dead, all around its base and 6-feet high and taller are new branches and vibrant growth. It's going to be just fine, though it will take many years before it regains its past magnificence. I especially liked the tree skeleton which appears to be windswept. I felt very satisfied by my tree-finding excursion, and tomorrow I'll tell you--and show you--what else I found on my adventure!
Pam, does your home reside in a valley like ours? I get the impression that it doesn't because I've never seen pictures of yours which indicate a valley. I did a search for "valley" and found your gorgeous coastal image, Valley of the Rocks Sunset. It's incredible, and yet, rife with sorrow, for it was a goodbye for you of a place you love. :( *MANY HUGS* for what is behind you but I do hope that you have plenty of special memories to add in the future. Thinking of you!

TREES ARE THE BONES OF THE LANDSCAPE AND HOLD UP THE CANOPY OF THE SKY.
BEAUTIFUL
I ACTUALLY HAVE A TINY RECORDING OF THE SURF ON THE ROCKS FROM THAT PICTURE YOU SAW.
I MISS HOME SO MUCH
I like the main picture the most.
It conveys such a wonderful mystical atmosphere that only a forest can show.

I like the right inset most.
A wonderful set of images here, especially the one with the old Caterpillar..
Very Impressive!!
Best wishes and a good week ahead

Janet Brien club has replied to Peter Castell clubSurprised to hear you have so lot of mushrooms in spring. Tiny ones I guess. But I am a city boy. So, what do I know! Maybe there are plenty of mushrooms in spring also in Finnish forests as well.
