Never Give Up

I have passed this tree for the past 19 years. Each year I believe it loses a little something but in spite of the weather it still stands strong and the birds love it. I hope it remains until I retire because I will miss seeing her.

Fascinating photo and processing. I though you moved a few years ago?

@grammyn Yes we did sell our old homestead and moved into a 55 and above community but I still have a 45 minute drive to work every day and I usually take the same route.

@digitalrn Ah that occurred to me after I posted that. I din't realize you still worked in the same place

It is a fabulous tree and the processing you chose is very arty and cool--love it!

Lovely shot and edit. I agree with you, it's like missing an old friend.

[Maggie]

Ah. Thanks for sharing. Love the shot

Trees like this so often have a beauty about them even with their missing branches and leaves. Good shot- I hope she stays there too.

I wonder what keeps these seemingly dead trees upright. They do appear to serve a purpose for wildlife.

Excellent textures in this. Nicely done.
