Nature Wild Grapevines In A Dark Wood

Wild Grapevines In A Dark Wood · **1 Like**

At just the right time of summer, the wild grape vines have vibrant green leaves and vigorously grow high up into the tall cottonwood trees.
The woods are shady and cool and have mysterious nooks and crannies--very enticing to look for wood sprites and miniature fairies and wood elves.
Or perhaps foxes and raccoons and wild turkeys...
Also a good place to suddenly peer around a tree for a surprising shot of light and dark places in amongst the leaves.

These brighter leaves do stand out from from the darker greens creating a good contrast. This area has dense and healthy growth. That's a contrast to our trees dropping leaves daily. Nice scene.

Thank you, Tony.
For me, something about the mysterious places in the woods that I remember exploring as a youngster--sort of refreshes me now as an old guy.

Thank you, Mike.
Your trees are already dropping leaves?
The California buckeyes are changing, as they always do midsummer, but nothing else is turning color yet.

Living on a ridge and going over a month without rain plus 100 degrees temps will burn them off. We don't retain much moisture on the ridge.

Well, explained that way, it does make good sense!
Sure hope the temps decrease soon, and some rain drops as well.
