The natural beauty of a dead tree contrasts to the living trees around it. Weathering of the trees along the ocean in the winter doesn't seem so severe as I have seen on the north shore of Lake Superior. The ocean must tone down the temperature along the shore so there is less destruction of the forest along the coast.
I have drawn and painted many rocks in my artworks and I am always aware of the compositions among these large boulders. I like the different colors of granite all along the shoreline. It becomes an informal pattern of design rather than a landscape so to speak.
Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

Crowded.....
The tulip was up first but the peony is now spreading out and shoving the tulip around a bit.

Teddy's legs are a little short for this big wheel but he still likes sitting on it. These shots were buried in my files and this one...

Iowa wild rose is the state flower. I keep finding evidence of our hard freeze on different plants as they mature. The freeze messed up...

Wow. Those rocks are from mountains and the trees are just fantastic to stake out roots where they do. Nice post.
I like the different colors and textures of the naturel stones.
What a creative idea for you to paint this rocks! Do you have pictures about your artworks?
I like the picture of the trees. I took a picture of a dead tree near out house a few years ago, and the next day it fell over. Had I waited one more day, it would have been to late.
I will have to give rocks and stones a look, see, next time I see a group of them together. Remember in the 60s, when they were selling pet rocks in the stores and some people bought them! Your picture brought back that memory. LOL...
We were just up in Copper Harbor and took a hike along the shoreline...we were remarking about the scraggly trees there and how they can't grow in such a cold place very well...but there were healthy ones there too. Some of your Maine scenes remind me a little of Lake Superior shorelines.
A sturdy old tree, I do like trees..I find them very interesting.. Rocks too..:)
