This scene will look SO different in a few weeks…

Two days of sunshine
You know you’re anxious for spring, when you celebrate two days in a row of sunshine and (mostly) blue sky. It won’t be long until those bare branches are filled with leaves.
The snowy shadows of spring
When spring weather doesn’t arrive on time, there isn’t much to do except keep taking photos of winter.
Bare birch grove
One of my favorite spots at Olbrich Botanical Gardens, in any season.
Yellow birch and red oak
Backlit forest canopy
There was just enough space in this part of the canopy to backlight these maple trees. All around this spot, nothing but shadow.
New, tiny pine cones
Crabapples blooming
I celebrated Earth Day today by hiking through the Arboretum.
In the horticultural gardens, the blooming crabapple trees seemed to be at their peak.
Young leaves, reaching for the sky
The bones of trees
I love being able to see the structure of bare trees in the winter time. It’s almost like seeing an x-ray of their bones.
