Today's tree was taken on the way to school.
The sun was low in the sky and, without a flash on my iPhone, the tree is silhouetted beautifully against the sky which was a beautiful colour.
Oranges, blues and purples.
And crunching in the snow just added to the experience.

Lisibo's 2010 Challenge
This is a challenge I've set myself for 2010 - to take and publish a photo of a tree every day for a year.
My 'other blog' is called ¡Vámonos! and is concerned with teaching and learning Primary Languages in the 21st century.

Sorry if you've had trouble commenting - I've fixed it now! I had ticked a box in error!
Love it Lisa!
What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
- William Henry Davies, 1871-1940
So true!
thank you for your lovely comment xx
Great pic - esp for an iPhone! As you say, it's very nicely sillhouetted against the sky.
