The Maple Tree

I remember climbing this tree (what seems like a million years ago) in my mom's front yard. Though very old, it looked lovely today with all the yellow.

This looks like a wonderful childhood play spot. It is gorgeous in it's old age. The older I get the more I appreciate "old" beauty.

What a great place to play - a lovely composition. I imagine you sitting at the end of one the branches taking this shot.

Wonderful old friend in gorgeous autumn color! What a fabulous climbing tree!

It's got eyes Lin and is winking from one with it's arms open wide. Lovely texture of the bark and nice colouring of the leaves. I'm seeing to much and need to lie down. Nice capture.

@sansjuan @kbird61 @tremerryn @peggysirk @ladymagpie Thanks, all - I'll have to look up some of the (very) old photos, when the tree and I were young. (Actually, Heather, I do see a lion's face in the bark! Yikes!)
