Scraggy Tree and Rainbow on Dark Field
Keeping an eye out for oddly-shaped clouds during this time of quickly changing weather prepared me for catching the scene below. Even though the photo is not perfect (it was taken through a car window), it is still a dramatic picture.
Japanese Garden
There were so many trees, each of them different: different kinds of leaves, different tones, different shadings. The sketch below is a meditation. I could have worked on it all day.

Parking Lot – Under a Tree
There was daylight today during my break. The sun had not even set. It cast strong tall shadows. I planted myself under a tree and took the picture shown below.

Tree Hugger
I saw a tree hugger today. It was another tree!
