taken July 29,2013--.
.. visited 'my' Eucalyptus' trees. and took a series of photographs...
.. starting with this one...
the biggest.. of my Eucalypt friends.. seemed all skinned to bare.. and not naturally, as they do.. but pulled of.. she was 'festering'.. and hurting.. could 'feel'... i hope, she survives the 'abuse' by people....
talked .. and took pictures.. of her places between trunk and branches.. torn 'skin.. and bare.. and so much beauty... texture.. colors.. her intriguing forms and faces.. her legacy of experiences.. throughout the years.. the weathered storms.. earthquakes.. dry winds.. the extreme of heat.. But also the soft breezes.. mild summer and spring rains.. the cool healing nights.. childrens voices.. animals rushing through her branches and around roots/trunk.. spiders and bugs.. and ants hustling.. the 'secrets' people share.. and the joys .. Trees are living presences.. often overlooked.. that they are.......
I love Trees... since little girl.. when I climbed up.. and thought, could not get down.. somehow.. always 'managed'...:) Now.. I look up.. touch the trunk.. follow their 'trails'.. listen to their 'voices.. and 'feel'.. and boy.. did her giving shade feel good in the heat today... that slight breeze.. through her leaves..
