Bird's Nest


The weed's act as a hasp around my small frame as I find my way over to the walnut tree. Its solitary form grows beside a small stream covered in overgrowth. The clouds are congealing above my head as I raise my camera to the spotted bird's nest. I'm allowed one quick shot before it begins raining. A single raindrop falls onto the lens...

I liked the effect that single raindrop gave this picture. I think it looks like fog surrounding the tree. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Hi Michelle,

The effect with the single raindrop brings me as a viewer of your photo closer to the scene. Cool.

Walnut trees. That sounds so nice. :)

Love it too! I thought it was fog!
Thanks for your supportive comments regarding my sister. She had a hard time emotionally last night & this morning, but she has a wonderful & supportive husband who helped her find her way back. Not an easy journey for any woman. You never really know until it comes close to you...unfortunately for my sister she is finding out what a rough road she has in front of her.
Thanks again,
Sharon:)

Michelle, this is such a beautiful photo! I so love finding these little secrets of Nature!

And the main reason I came here was to let you know that I have now included a comment about you in my "Sunday Review of My Blogging Journey" post! The comment should have been there already! It's a "thank you" for your regular comments on my blog! Without people like you, I would be writing in a vacuum!

Have a wonderful weekend!

It conjures up a thought of something mysteriously mystic

This photo is like looking through one's own eyelids while dreaming.
