These trees really caught my driving through Herefordshire, the winter crop just starting to grow so fresh and green!
This towering, neighborhood tree stands on a vacant lot dwarfing the other trees around it. I often wonder what stories it could tell and how it came to dominate the horizon, defying storms and the sawblade. It has a covering of new leaves now, which gives me hope that my country and our democracy will endure through this time of "Trumpian" darkness.

An other shot from the trip to the "Sandplacke"
Manually focused to infinity and let the camera rest on the roof of the car.
Eastern meadowlark is songbird that belongs to the blackbird family. There are 17 subspecies of eastern meadowlarks that can be found in the eastern parts of North, Central and South America. Eastern meadowlark inhabits grasslands, prairies, pastures, agricultural fields and areas near the roads. Accelerated development of agriculture and pollution of the ground with pesticides negatively affect survival of eastern meadowlarks in the wild. Despite these factors, population of eastern meadowlarks is still large and stable.
Eastern meadowlarks have an expected lifespan of five years in the wild, which is the same as the high end of its expected lifespan in captivity. The longest know lifespan in the wild is nine years.
I found this lively one not sitting on a fence post, along Joe Overstreet Road in Osceola County, Florida.
Infrared....something different for me and I'm still not sure about this image, but thought I would post it anyway !!! I'm always fascinated by the adstract effect of backlit branches and leaves. I felt infrared helped separate the leaves from the silhoetted branches. Would be very interested for feedback....good or bad !!!

Another one from the golden fields that have sprung up all around here. Sort of symmetry to the shot with being actually symmetrical/
I saw these trees when I was walking through the park with my dog. I loved the light and the colour. More recently, the trees have been damaged in storms and drastically pollarded. Better for them, but it'll be a while before this green canopy exists again.
The Hayfield ’20 Trees’ again, taken from a different angle….the village of Hayfield can be seen through the trees. The original of this wasn’t great as I’d shot pretty much straight into the low sun, but I quite liked it in black and white.
Hope everyone’s had a great weekend- I am 4 days into Sugar Free February and haven’t killed anyone yet, so all is well :)
The song actually has one of the best videos ever, in my opinion. Here's a link: m.youtube.com/watch?v=mpaPBCBjSVc&safe=active
My take on the lone tree at Buttermere, It's shot to death but always nice to get your own take on an iconic location.
We headed down here on Sunday evening and although we were a little late for sunset we still got a bit of light hitting Fleetwith Pike.

As much as I appreciated comments and feedback I would request no Awards or flashy gif comments, please. They will be deleted. Thank you.
This tree is located along The Rivers Trail, a network of walking paths on the banks of the North and South Thompson Rivers. It was kind of a surprising thing to find this carving as it must have involved several hours work and it's doubtful that it was sanctioned by the city. I do love it but I just hope it hasn't harmed the tree.
