Day 118, April 27th

Didn't have much time to take pictures today but this afternoon, while eating an apple at Line's place, we heard a loud crack and boom. Looked outside and this huge tree had fallen just about 10 feet from my jeep... Took a few snaps for souvenir:

That tree deal falling over is crazy! Must have been weakened from snow and ice maybe?

Yep, that's what it looked like to me. This tree divided itself in 3 trunks right at the base. I suspect that rain got in then froze solid while expanding between the trunks and it got weak. It wasn't even windy. And I usually do park my jeep right on the other side where the tree fell.

What kind of tree is it?

What kind of tree is it?

I am pretty sure this is a DEAD tree.

Day 120, April 29th

Just a quick little portrait backlit with the Rokinon 85 @ 1.4 with the D700. Seems for my grand daughter the camera is NOT the most important thing to look at. At that age, cartoons rule.

I'm not sure Jeff. I'll wait to see when the leaves grow on the remaining tree what it is. It could be a maple but I'm not sure about which kind…
To be followed.

The chant of a meditating cat...


"I thought...
