This image features a worm's-eye view of three tall, mature Poplar tree trunks reaching toward a vibrant blue sky.
The low-angle, upward-looking shot creates a sense of immense scale, making the trees appear to tower over the viewer.
The focal point is the deeply fissured, rough bark. 
On the center tree, the bark is covered in patches of yellow-green lichen, adding a layer of natural color and detail.In the background, thin, leafless branches spread out across the clear sky. 
Strong, direct sunlight highlights the coarse ridges of the bark, creating high-contrast shadows that emphasize the trees' rugged texture.

Trio of aged Black poplars (Populus nigra) with very thick, deeply fissured and rugged bark at the base of their trunks.
We still have to wait for the leaves. 🌿

Small, yet fierce heart of the wild
You are the colour of courage
that refuses to fade…

A box in a wheel barrow in a yard reads: 'feel free to use me. Please return ... the favour'

A tender bloom opening gracefully, like a moment shared between hearts.

If you ever wonder
where you are in my world
you’re the part that feels like magic…

A beefly sits on some purple muscaria (grape hyacinth). Its body is covered in fuzz and its wings are blurred with motion. You can make out it's long tongue.

Beefly in the garden. Cute little parasites. Good pollinators and fantastic for the food chain. Love their fuzzy bodies and long searching tongues... but then again, who doesn't?

Sunday night was finally clear so I got my camera out for some #astrophotography. I noticed a splodge to the left of #Orion in the consolation of Monoceros. I decided to get a better view and pointed the telescope at it.

The result was the amazing Rosette Nebula, located on the nose of the Unicorn.

When you look out and see a squirrel nibbling. What more can the heart say pleases it? Such fragility, such strength. The blessings of nature are many, the sweetness of existence a walk into acceptance that now is all that matters.

A longhorn beetle known as the ladder back longhorn beetle, sits on my hand. It happened as I was teaching some year 9's a session called 'Endangered Ecosystems'. The text reads: Can't believe this amazing Saperda scalaris landed on me whilst I was teaching 'Endangered Ecosystems' a red list species itself.

So amazing!!!

I got this memory pop up. I was teaching Endangered Ecosystems to a group of 13-14 year olds when this rather rare longhorn beetle landed on me. I was blown away, the kids were mildly interested πŸ˜† some more than others...

My partner is an avid devourer of books and cannot understand when I read a book again. 'Don't read it again! There's all these books you haven't read yet! Read this instead! πŸ˜†πŸ“š
