Celebrating the Ordinary


It is Skywatch Friday, and we are celebrating ordinary skies again here at Dandelion Haven. I snapped this photo on my way home from work today--I love a lone tree in the middle of a farmer's field. Even on a gray day, there is something serene and comforting about a lone tree.

  3. Kateri, I had to do a double take. I thought the picture was taken behind the hill from us. I love your pictures.

  6. What a great place for a tree. I like the trees without leaves. Their branches show all their character.

  7. Hi Kateri, That tree provides a nice scenic view, shelter for birds and small animals, shade and is good for our environment. Have a super nice weekend!
