Quacking aspen grow tall and straight very quickly in the tree world living only 100-150 years. Amongst the trees growing on the Kaibab Plateau that isn’t very old compared to the slow growing 300-500 year old Ponderosa Pines. When was the last time you laid back down on the ground to stare up into the tree tops?
Nice pic, I laid down in one of our old parks about two weeks ago on a warm Saturday afternoon and watched the tree tops.
Such a wonderful thing to do. Good for you.
I do it all the time when I’m not at the beach. There aren’t many trees towering over here. Love seeing and taking pictures of the tops against the sky. This is a good one, aspens are gorgeous. Being mostly an east coast person I don’t get to see them often.
I knew you would be a gazer, and a hugger of course, of trees. Maybe you’ll get to enjoy the aspen on your trip west next year.
Great perspective.
Love the colours and perspective in this pic Gaelyn.
Absolutely love this picture.
