    It seems to be a favourite with the birds too. Is it still standing I wonder.

    Great contrast against a dark sky.

    God bless, Bill.

    It is interesting to have favorite tree... especially when you photograph it throughout the different seasons.

    Great shot of tree, sky, fence, and pristine grass. At first I thought all it's leaves had already fallen, but the grass shows not a leaf on it...so now I think it's dead. But then, maybe not!

    Isn't it early in the season for a tree to have lost all its leaves, I wonder?

    Striking with the lonely bare tree. Where was this taken?

    I like that moody sky and those bare branches. Beauty is everywhere.

    A handsome tree. At some point they might need to cable it in order to keep the two sections from falling apart.

    This is certainly a well shaped tree, but it does not look at all well, or has it just lost its leaves for its winters nap?

    A lone tree without a leaf is always a wonderful to look out.
