Post a Photo

View attachment 87441View attachment 87442View attachment 87443View attachment 87444Finally, just a few random pics from last week. I’ve got dozens more I haven’t even started to go through but I don’t want to monopolize the thread here. Thank you all for the likes and the comments as well as just putting up with the vacation pic slide show haha. I really love taking photos of beautiful places I visit and sharing them with whomever I can. I sincerely appreciate to opportunity to share these here!! ❤️
I want more!! It is not just the subjects, but also the light that brings magic to your photos. It's art! ❤️
 
Close encounter with a juvenile heron on my riverside walk yesterday. I also took a video of it taking flight but sadly the file size is too huge to upload...

Such amazing creatures!! I love watching them when they are in the water, standing still to make their legs look like sticks. Or watching them fly, they make me think of a time when humans were not here yet. Too bad the vid is too long! Love that you shared the pic! ❤️❤️

There are several living in the local river. One has acquired the name Joanie from the townspeople! Such elegant birds, albeit with a slightly screechy call when in flight.

Haha!!! I’ll post more…I still have quite a few I haven’t even looked at yet. When I’m out I’ll just take photos of everything then later go through them, keeping the ones I like. But thank you ❤️❤️❤️
 
IMG_4242.jpegIMG_4243.jpegIMG_4247.jpegJust found this…a 52-inch Quercus macrocarpa (bur oak) on the campus at the University of Chicago. This baby is beautiful and it’s pretty rare to find one this large within an urban area. Being open grown is definitely responsible for that. I would probably estimate it at 250-300 years old.

She is magnificent ❤️
Oak is my favourite kind of tree...on my walks around town I make sure to connect physically with each one as I pass. Just a touch feels like grounding me. Or if I'm in the woods and nobody is around, a big hug lol
