Wow!

Isn't that beautiful?
Makes me want to move right in.

I bet we'd find the Keebler elves in there...

I was thinking the Berenstain Bears.

I'm hungry for cookies.... can you tell?

I don't often get the hunger bug, but was thinking of honey just now.
Bears and honey, get it?? And on to the land of Pooh.

See what you stirred up, Tarev?

Comfort food ...yum!

Yes. Honey for sure.

How come the faces are blurred out?

Liked your article Sharon. Losing our forests puts us in dire peril.
Here's some of my favorite tree pics:

jmorth, your photography is very interesting as usual.

Those are STUNNING!

Can you tell us where they were taken?

it's a privacy/protection thing - keeps them unrecognizable

Jmorth, Wow.
Stunning.

The barren boulder-ish mountain with the lone tree standing just simply speaks for itself. It's one of those images that one could write a book about. I think I would call it: Strength in the Midst of Dire Peril.

All of your images speak volumes.
Thank you.

Thanks, Mary...

And yes, Jmorth, those pictures are amazing!

1) from where I work in Springfield, Il.
2) from the route to work
3) from north of Brenda's - Sunshine campground (near turn to Ophir), SW Colorado
4) Red Mountain (south of Ouray, Colorado)
5) Quad City Botanical Garden in Rock Island, Il.

So those golden sunshiny trees are aspens?
Brenda, I'm coming to your place, I love aspens. When I looked at them originally I thought sycamores.

I love the barn scene too, J. Those warm fallish colors are just plain gorgeous and the redbud looks just like mine.

Thanks, j.

Sharon, the road to Telluride (which is the road I live on, about an hour south) is full of thousands and thousands of aspens. We have a picture in our home taken by Tony Newlin (a great photographer) of some of the aspens. Here is a link to the picture: http://www.tonynewlin.com/Autu...
