I first saw this tree's shadow about two years ago. But it's about ten miles from my house, and I didn't have a camera with me then. The shadow only looks like this at certain times of day, of course. I've seen it when the shadow spread even longer... but I was very happy to see it today. Again, I was traveling to one of my work assignments, and I did have the camera.

That is such an incredibly beautiful picture, Joan, with the shadows of the tree on the snow.
As for commenting, visiting your blog is good therapy for me, connecting with a friend. I miss you on the days I don't visit.
Very nice picture, and an even nicer bunch of regulars at your site! :-)
I love that tree. :) The trees are beautiful with the snow on them these days.
Thanks for the mention--it's a joy visiting you, Sharky!

The peaceful tree looks like it's roots are reaching out, asking us to stop and enjoy. What a fine photographer (and writer) you are!
Since I read your book I've become a fan of your blog.

Stopped by to say Hi.. I'm really tired of winter...
That is indeed an interesting shadow. Looks like roots!?
Thanks for the mention and the link.
Just keep talking....
Best wishes to you.
That is one amazing and awesome shadow. Glad you had your camera to capture it this time.
Thanks for the link, I always enjoy my visits here.
Carmen- Thanks, my friend! Hopefully I can get that shadow when it's even longer some time.
Ferd- It's a nice place here. Glad to see you more often.
Lin- and the feeling is mutual, friend.
wiseacre- nah... you actually had 3... but that did leave you short of a link.
Phyl- Thanks so much for coming by and figuring out how to comment. The book is more "writing" while the blog is just sharing my days... but I bet you already figured that out.
Hi Joe- I love winter... but I don't need too many days like today, that's for sure.
Chuck- You are so right! That tree is growing up and down, both.
rainfield- I'll look for some little arachnids to talk to this spring.
Ann- It's really a spot worthy of some special trips in various seasons if I could pull that off.
This is quite late but still better than nothing.. LOL
Love how you captured the trees.
