I think that I shall never see
a billboard lovely as a tree.
Perhaps, unless the billboards fall,
I'll never see a tree at all.
Ogden Nash

... while being less asian it's "When it makes sense to buy that bigger paint tin", right?!

 

[Glenton]

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

Joyce Kilmer

"A few people asked
Why a tree?

I said it was for my own
edification -

a tree always
has something to teach"

Katherine Gallagher

a coronita is a small corona, simple huh

 

[RoseCat]

beautiful shot. This challenge is bearing wonderful fruit.

Thank you!!

 

[RoseCat]

I don't know anyone else who (on an ongoing basis) can make bits of tin look interesting

That made me smile.... thank you!

Lovely.... so Zen.
Did you stack the stones? That's something I want to try....

Not me. The only balancing I did was not falling in the river.
Me and my eldest have done stone balancing at a Llandudno in Wales. We busked it and made enough money for him to buy a book he wanted.
It's like photography; very easy but you have to keep at it to get decent results.

Beautiful Ann. Ginko?

I think so. Just some leaves I gathered along our road and photographed later.

Yes, of course Deepop would choose Simplicity - he is the King of simplicity.

I like to get a leg up on these challenges.

Thank you. I can't yet quite reach the heights that you do, but I'm hopeful.

Our beloved Sam-the-dog loved three grandbabies in his ten years. We're glad of memories like these early 'sniffing each other out' moments.

When I was looking for 'simplicity' in my camera roll full of edits and collages and pastiche, this one reminded me of the simplicity of a puppydog's love & loyalty, the curiosity & trust of a baby -- and how much can be 'held' & treasured in a simple, inexpert snap.

 

[deepop]

Thank you. I can't yet quite reach the heights that you do, but I'm hopeful.

Practice, practice, practice

Douglas Adams' advice was to learn to throw yourself at the ground, and miss. (imo the more detailed instructions = one of his best (of many) genius moments).

I don't know about inexpert. A beautiful, touching photo of a lovely moment.
