Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Hi I'm starting again.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I'll just walk over the stream and begin my walk, would anyone like to join me….

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

These trees are really big.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

those trees are huge Jenny, what are they?

I found some moss….

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Tai your moss is really delicate.
The trees are Norfolk Island Pines. They grow along the coast. These are at Toowoon Bay just north of my place. They are beautiful trees. 

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

went walking by the lake today… thought I'd share even though I not in the woods.. :-)

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Great pic Leigh-Anne. I love clouds like that. Heres one taken from the car

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Oh Leigh ann - that is such a wispy invigorating shot.  And to see today from your eyes in England and now to Jenny in Australia on the same day, I can feel the difference between walking and driving through the clouds.

It reminds me of photography on the run

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Lovely Kathy.
I'm going out now to see what I can find to photograph for here. See you later.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

another one from today - walking along Lake Erie this afternoon in the sunshine :-)

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

combining my trees with a few clouds, there wasn't many in the sky that day, I'll find some (:0)

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

tried posting before twice and it didnt work here goes again

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

just keep trying Jen, sometimes it takes me 3 or 4 goes then cuts off - must have it's off days - we don't have the new style internet connection here as yet but I'm told it's coming soon - gaia can get really slow, I have to log off when that happens

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

that photo really leads the eye - just like you're walking into the sea….
what time of day is it taken..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

It was about 3 pm but it was cloudy and humid today. a bit yucky heavy.
Pretty green leaf Tai Is it Birch?

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

just did a quick search, think it's hazel, it looks so fresh and green…

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

took a short walk today by Kettle Creek … lovely way to spend Easter morning!

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

the sunlight and shadows are amazing in this picture, bet you had a great morning out - thanks for sharing….

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I love your pictures of Easter Leigh Ann & Tai.  Here's the Hollywood Bowl Sunrise service.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

wow great photos everyone

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

been walking this morning but not loaded up new pictures yet…
chilly breeze but the sun is out now..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I want to walk through there

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

the pathway broadens out after this bit and the track is flooded with sunlight..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I'll meditate on this walk

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

we're walking slowly up the bank, I wonder what's on the other side of the slope..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I tried a couple of his music from Youtube and none work when you paste them so I deleted them. Sorry will try and think of something else.


{mod note: If you give the URL to the music or who the artist is we can still put it here as a link and click over…}

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

found this old wood stump, with some interesting fungi…

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I love old fungi on wood, brings back memories. When we were children we used to go camping every year down the coast. There were some old fallen down trees where we camped that had big old fungis on them. They were oranges and yellows and glowed in the dark. I loved them and was convinced they belonged to the faeries.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I remember going to a forest as a child and spotting the red and white toadstools associated with faeries, I was very excited, I love the faery rings, made from the spores, have to see if I can find one somewhere….

this pic is a zoomed up clump of moss…

I clicked on the blue link and it worked - beautiful and heart-centered - thanks Jen

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

great

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

“the hollow tree”

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

more roots 

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

even more roots….

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

just realised You put tree roots in another thread didnt you Tai? O well, here are some tree roots.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

we did it together!!!

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

more     mangrove

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

just thinking that myself (:0)
it was in the trees for peace - this is the photo, before I zoomed it up for “effect”  - think it's ivy roots - what's yours Jen

this one is wild garlic - the flower stalks are just coming up now, so will get a picture of the flowers soon, it will be really pungent when walking by the stream - adds a whole new dimension to “garlic breath”!

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

not sure what the top one is think its related to the Baobab grows in subtropical areas This was near my parents place in Ballina up north

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

When you think about nature and trees and plants, they are “at home” where they grow - it's so important for us to feel “at home” - to be in a nurturing place, where there is enough food, light, warmth and shelter… home is like good rich soil with plenty of nutrients….

think we posted together again!

it's wonderful seeing another country's growth and nature - thanks for sharing your pictures.  This last picture reminds me of one I took on Monday - a sort of “ivy archway”

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

good one Tai

This is pigface holding the sanddunes together

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

they're really delicate and so PINK (:0)

I found my reflection picture..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

I really like that photo Tai

Heres my best reflecting photo looks like a visit to the nearest water this weekend.

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

this is where I took the picture…

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

very pretty, is that near you?

heres where I took mine

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

about 10 minutes walk away - love your beach dog - wonderful reflection…
is the coastline near to you?  I could just imagine myself “paddling” in the sea here and going for a walk along the sands

this pic is just before you get to the little bridge..

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Thats so lovely good walking place. I was imagining you hanging over the bridge taking your reflection. That beach is 4 minutes drive from my place. Unfortunately the road isnt good for walking there. Its steep near my end and has no footpath.
Thats the northern end.
This is the southern end on a cloudy day

Re: Natures Celebration - a woodland walk 2

Hi Jenny - looks like it's a really big beach - is your sea warm, our's is usually pretty chilly…  Must be wonderful to be so near the coast

Think I will start a new thread for “Nature Walks” as this one can be slow sometimes…
Love doing “photo exchange”!
