Like a hand with 7+ fingers reaching up from the grass. Southside pond in background.

Not far away, a Swan on the pond swimming through the sun's reflection.

A beautiful moss covered Western red #cedar #tree - still unprotected.
Only a human, with a compromised & unwell soul, would be OK killing an elder tree this magnificent. Some things are just plain wrong.

These ancient old growth trees are essential to fighting accelerated #ClimateChange. #OldGrowth ecosystems in our coastal temperate rainforests supports much biodiverse lifeforms. The naturally moist environment helps to lower impacts of wildfires & other natural disasters that have increased as our governments continue to fund & enable more ecocidal projects.

Low-angle, wide shot of a tree trunk positioned vertically. The bark is reddish-brown, deeply textured with vertical grooves, and heavily populated with green moss. The composition emphasizes the tree's height and scale, creating a sense of upward momentum. Framing trees surround the main subject, with a diffused, white sky in the background.

#TexturesTuesday

I love interesting tree #bark. These are two very different old growth trees & their unique bark #textures
#Arbutus / #Madrona & Western Red #Cedar.

An old growth Arbutus tree, close up on its interesting weathered bark. Revealing colorful layers of bark that has changed ovrr time. The bottom layer is pale green, transitioning to brown and then into a pattern of wavy, dark blue-black lines. A section of rough, white runs vertically along the top left. Cracks and weathered textures are visible throughout the bark.

A close-up shot reveals the intricate texture of cedar tree bark, featuring a mix of long, vertical ridges intersected by horizontal lines, creating a distinct and aged appearance. The color palette is predominantly brown and silver, with deeper shadows adding depth and highlighting the weathered surface of the bark.

#Arbor #family of yellow #cedar #trees in the #forest. These are 3rd growth cedars, between 6-100 years old.
On territory.

A black & white photograph of me standing next to big cedar trees in a dense forest. The trees have thick, gnarled trunks & many bare, winding branches that reach upward & outward, creating a visual texture. I'm wearing a white fur hat & dark clothing, partially obscured by the tree's trunk. The forest floor is covered with leaves & twigs, adding to the overall sense of a wild, untamed environment. Other tall trees surround the primary subject forming a dense forest scene.

#ThickTrunkTuesday

This beautiful, ancient yellow #cedar tree has a massive, moss covered trunk. It is estimated at over 500 years old. There are very few #ElderTrees of this scale found outside of protected parks on Southern Vancouver Island now. The few remaining unprotected old growth forest tracts should be conserved for stability & longevity of our wild, ancient ecosystems & for the future generations to enjoy/admire/study.

The need to protect old growth forests has been the case for decades but even more important in present times because of accelerated climate change & the increased greedy desperation of corporate ecociders & our governments who aid/abet the pillaging which destroys wild environments that are essential for humans to sustain our lives on Earth. Valuable medicines are found & several medicines have yet to be found in these old growth, coastal temperate, wild rainforests. We need to protect these ancient forests for the above listed & many more important reasons.

The image features the base of a massive yellow cedar tree in a dense forest. The ancient tree's thick, textured bark is heavily coated in green moss & lichen, in the damp, old-growth environment. Small ferns & leafy green plants grow around the base of the tree. Other trees are visible in the background, further highlighting the forest setting. The perspective is from a low angle, emphasizing the tree's size & imposing presence.

I'm loving the cans from Arbor Brewery as they are larger than the usual cans and have a pint of beer in them (or 568ml) so I'm having to get my pint glasses out of the cupboard

On the left is a taller than usual black can as it holds a pint of beer. The label is pinky orange with a stylised black and white 3 pronged maple leaf in the bottom left. Above this in black capital letters it says Arbor from bottom to the top of the can. To the right of this in the same orientation in white capital letters it says Nashoba and underneath the leaf in white capital letters it says NEIPA. To the right of this is a full pint glass containing the hazy opaque beer which is a deep yellowy amber colour. They are both standing on a wooden computer desk with a black monitor behind them

Gnarly #GarryOak #tree.

A towering garry oak tree with sprawling branches & dense foliage. The texture of the bark is visible & the intertwined branches extend outwards against a bright sky.

#ThickTrunkTuesday
This 2nd growth #DouglasFir #SnagTree is still standing after many wild Westcoast storms. Snag trees are essential for healthy #forest #ecosystems. They provide food, shelter/habitat for wildlife & their roots are still connected to family of forest trees, mutually aiding each other.

A towering, weathered, Douglas fir tree dominates the image, featuring a rugged trunk & gnarled branches extending outward. The scene is captured in black and white, enhancing the intricate textures of the tree's bark and the surrounding foliage. Dense undergrowth and other trees are visible in the background, contributing to the tranquil yet wild atmosphere of the forest.

Quickie #mirrored edit - created a nature portal in the center

A symmetrical composition with tall coniferous trees arranged on either side, creating a mirrored effect. The foreground contains dark tree silhouettes, gradually leading to a lighter background of mountains under an overcast sky. The black-and-white color photo emphasizes contrast, depth, and distant landscape, contributing to a moody and contemplative ambiance.

I love admiring exposed #tree #RootSystems in forests. I find them quite beautiful & very interesting. They are one of many essential life veins in our biodiverse #forests. I'll never grow tired of appreciating tree #roots

A forest scene in black and white, featuring prominent tree roots twisting across the ground. Tall trees rise in the background, creating a dense woodland atmosphere. The ground is bare except for roots and patches of ferns.

#ThrowbackThursday
2005.
From past film documentary trip through the BC Interior. When I worked with some forestry scientists on documenting pine beetle infestation problems. We had a nice lunch break up in the mountains.
