Trees. Resilient. Endure. Energy. Strength.
This weeks photo challenge theme is Trees and Leaves. There was a time when I didn’t really pay attention to trees. That’s what happens when you grow up surrounded by concrete. After a few years of traveling and living more and more outdoors, you begin to appreciate trees. A landscape without trees is land without character.

Different Textures and Colors
Can be enchanting to see the variety of textures and colors trees around us display.

Growing Up In Odd Places
Or, they show up where you’d never think a tree would be able to grow. Kind of like some of us, I’m sure.

Getting Lost in the Trees
RV travel provides us the opportunity to discover trees and leaves not in our home area. I’m intrigued by the unique and wonderful trees we do spot while out and about.

I love your take on the theme this week, Cheryl! Nature certainly provides for an unusual set of trees plopped down in the unlikeliest of places and still have the ability to thrive. Proving that nature always has her way. Glad your adventures made you look at trees more closely! Gorgeous images!
