What about the uphill climbs, Matt? hmm?? I like the contrast of the foreground trees against the mountains.

Thanks! I actually enjoy the whole experience! Same for backcountry skiing. Just being out there is something to savor. And exertion feels good as long as I'm in decent shape which is where I try to stay. The climbs can be like a meditation and then the thrill of going down feels like flying!

I visited this old pine for the first time in a while tonight.

Thanks! It's a great tree. One of the first I photographed when taking a photography class in college here.

Yes. And now I know what mesquite is.

Thanks, John, that's exactly what I was trying to convey.

You mean it isn't one of those pesky little insects that leaves an itchy bite???

David Eckels · « **Reply #2910 on:** May 13, 2021, 11:43:52 am »

They grow like weeds here, Eric. The trees, not the insects. We have cedar gnats that enjoy breeding in our skin.

Eric Myrvaagnes · « **Reply #2911 on:** May 13, 2021, 05:54:30 pm »

Ouch. We have nothing much worse than mosquitos.

Crooked trees, great depth and finally that fog are all combined for a winner shot.

Yeah, another nice one. It almost looks like that around here but not because of fog, it's because of wildfire smoke from OR and CA.
It just doesn't have the same kind of charm.

Eric Myrvaagnes · « **Reply #2916 on:** August 11, 2021, 12:03:14 pm »

Bill has not only a reliable fog machine, but also a first-class tree-twister.

John R · « **Reply #2917 on:** August 11, 2021, 05:22:00 pm »

One of these days Bill, someone is going to tap on the shoulder while you are photographing in the fog and scare the living daylights out of you. And they will say, "Sorry mate, just wanted to say what fine images you are posting on LuLa." And proceed on their merry way

Larches in spring at the Posa del fén, along the track to Védàit (Valtellina).
