An alternative path through the woods.

Intentional camera movement coupled with some creative Photoshopping.

Two Trees

Over there, off to one side, another tree.  Two trees, each watching the other, keeping the other company.  One obviously older, having seen more, able to share with the other knowledge of the past.  They both watch, as the man on the side of the road takes pictures before vanishing down the October Road.

Not Sure what’s up; or what’s Down?

A good reflection can go either way.

Nature In Motion #2

Nature In Motion #1

A brief stop along a northern Minnesota highway to observe nature in motion.

Winter Grove

A tree farm perhaps.  Several acres of trees planted in tidy rows.

All Tangled Up

Somehow all my leading lines got tangled, good luck following them.

A Few Final Reflections…

Now that I have enjoyed another #optoutside, I can start thinking about where I’ll go next year to celebrate the fourth annual event.  I have a whole year to plan, and you have a whole year to wait.  In the meantime, do get outside whenever possible and enjoy what nature has to offer to each of us.  And, whenever possible, share the experience with others.  And, don’t be afraid to look at things a little differently.

Mostly White

Our early winter continues with a fresh coat of snow.

Time with Trees

After a couple of trips to the big city, it feels good to spend some time away from the hubbub of metropolitan energy and spend a bit of time in the northern woods.
