Just some random photos from the yard, yesterday I found the moon while looking up into the Weeping Cherry tree. Lacy Dogwood branches looked cheerful, somehow, while this bare Hickory had a more somber appearance. The Camellias are, by far, the brightest things to be found at this time of year, but I also found some interesting fungus, there must be Gnomes hiding somewhere nearby.
Beautiful pics. I like the hickory the best with the gray sky. It does have a somber appearance but strikes something in me.
I agree with Polly the Hickory is definately my favourite although I love all your other piccies too. :-D I really like the way you've caught the light in the branches and the pale sky behind it sets it off well and gives a wonderful moody effect to the shot. I also love the dogwood photograph, as you say, somehow it just looks cheerful and makes me smile.
