….so cold yesterday that I was only able to take one shot and then the battery died

Becca Givens hosts Sunday Trees every week. I’ve always enjoyed taking photos of trees and bark because of the wonderful shapes, colours and textures they possess.

Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge – #52

….for the last week of the year I just had to participate in one of my favourite photo challenges

Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge allows us to post any photo that doesn’t really fit into any other category. This past weekend when I walked through the neighbourhood I noticed these bushes that had been cut back, leaving only the base of the the plant. Sometimes they literally grew from the rocks.

The weather continues to be mild but the temperatures did drop in the last two days. Today was brisk but sunny. The forecast calls for more mild weather in the next week. No white Christmas this year.
