Nice shots! With all these great tree shots I sure hope you all save some for the contest

You're still shooting vegetation Jer, gnarley though it may be!

Some thread titles get me curious and some make me wonder if I really should proceed. I'm glad the photos weren't what I expected to see. Around here all the tree skeletons are just that - lots of broken branches from the ice storm, and many debranched trunks waiting to be removed and replanted in the spring. Glad I stopped by.

The way I see it, EM is that you photograph the good (at which you are a master) and I'll take care of the bad and the ugly, for which I occasionally (and unpredictably) exhibit a certain facility

.

Thanks much, MSL. These will start coming back to life in a couple of weeks or so, I suspect.

Great tree shots Jer. The first one is my favorite. I am a sucker for bare branches. Good series.

Dave - I'm glad you dig 'em. This sort of thing is not for everyone, but I really like making photos like these. I'm sure glad I have a cohort!
