I finally remembered to bring my camera to my littlest daughter's preschool the other day. It's held in a church out in an area that's still a bit wooded. I love that on this street no one has cut down these trees. I thought the ferns and moss growing on them were so pretty, they really caught my eye. I put the antique filter on the HP image zone editing and I thought it turned out pretty nice. It's been fun trying out different settings.
This beauty of course is the more beautiful of the two I think. No editing necessary here. This playhouse is inside the playground that is surrounded by these trees, she loved playing outside that day even though it was only in the 40's. 
I love your photos - both are so natural and so beautiful. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNice photos. I'm looking forward to following your blog. Nathan
ReplyDeleteIt's heartening to see something still (even in a limited way) in a primeval state. I imagine the whole of the Northwest once looked like that - dense and mossy and festooned with ferns. Thanks for taking that pic and posting it.
ReplyDeleteAs for the bright pink 'flower' - absolutely lovely! ;-)
I love the antique pic- very nice. Don't you just love moss? Some people actually kill it! The second photo needs no comment...it speaks for itself :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Catherine, she is a darling little one! Such a happy face. The ferns on the trees are fantastic too!

Nutty Gnome - thanks!!
ReplyDeleteNathan - thanks for joining in. I'll be over to visit your blog.
Kris - That's the same thought I had. Wouldn't it have been gorgeous? Isn't she cute, if I do say so myself!
Tessa - It doesn't look as good on here as it does on i photo, still not bad. Moss can be beautiful, except in our grass.
Frances - Thanks. She's a real character that's for sure. I'm glad she loves to be outside, just like her big sister.
I love the moss and ferns on the trees. Yes, she looks very happy to be in that play house. She is so cute!

I love the trees the moss and fern make it feel very atmospheric
ReplyDeleteDo you call that moss "Old Man's Beard?" Years ago, while traveling in Canada, a naturalist described their hanging moss that way. Your daughter is as cute as can be (and as happy!) ;-)
ReplyDeleteLona - Thanks. It's hard to convince her to leave there. She thinks it's "her" house.
ReplyDeletepatientgardener - It really feels like you are deep in the forest until you drive a block to the main road.
Shady - I'm not sure what it's called, I might have to do a little research. Thank you for complimenting my daughter. She is a sweet little girl!
So sweet! Definitely two natural beauties.
ReplyDeleteYes, you did post 2 natural beauties! Your daughter looks like she loves being outside. Our grandson and I went out with Heidi, our yellow lab for a little while yesterday. He was so delighted to be out there, but was not content for me to carry him around like he used to be.
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful tree and an adorable child.
ReplyDeleteTina - thanks!
ReplyDeleteSue - Glad you had a chance to get outside with your grandson. They sure do get independent quickly don't they
flowrgirl1 - thank you for the compliments!
That's a neat trick with the filter. The ferns are amazing and the trees look furry, almost. What a precious pic of your little girl. She looks so happy.
ReplyDeleteMelanthia - since I started this blogging I've learned so much about the camera and computer. I guess it got me to try some new things. Now what I really want is a new camera. This one is OLD!
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is so sweet. Love the moss and ferns. The scene looks otherworldly. Nice.
ReplyDeleteGrace -Thanks. It does have that look doesn't it?
