Spring is one of my favourite seasons of the year. It’s the season when everything bursts back into life after a Winter rest. Walking in the woods is a real treat for the senses in Spring as the trees are developing their fresh green leaves and the Springtime flowers begin to bloom. I know I’ve said before, but you can smell ‘green’ in the air! This is a time of renewal, a time for making new plans. Spring is full of promises to be fulfilled.
I’ve chosen beechwoods in Spring for Cee’s Wood and Spring Foto Challenge. I love the way the sunlight filters through the the new citrus-green leaves.
The bark on this Beech tree really caught my eye. Beech trunks are usually quite smooth and grey – they always remind me of elephants! But on some trees, like this one, the bark develops into a network pattern. When it rains the rain runs down in rivulets and the algae on it glows an irridescent green against the dark tree trunk. It’s beautiful to see.

Beautiful views of the spring! Nature always inspires, isn’t it? I live in the tropical part of India where we don’t experience the extremities as in your place, but, I can understand what spring means to you 🙂
TC! Keep smiling 🙂
Thank you Sindhu 🙂 Nature certainly does inspire, I agree!
Such gorgeous woods for this week’s challenge. Thanks for playing.
Thank you Cee 🙂 I love posting about woods 😉
