Description
An huge old eucalyptus tree along my river walk. If you look carefully, you can see the red that's part of the treehouse. I've walked past this place so many times and only saw this for the first time yesterday. Isn't it fun when that happens, you see something new that's been there all the time!!

Interesting shot Marilyn, some great colour and texture, I like the title. Can't wait to see the RIGHT tree!
It is suprising what you see when you take up photography as a serious hobby, your whole attitude to life changes and you see things in a totally different light. Like you say, you have walked past here countless times and never really noticed what was there. Little things we take for granted suddenly spring out on us and we then want to share with others of a similar ilk. Some like me get it a little late in life and we suddenly realise we have been missing out big time. So glad you noticed this, the trunk with the peeling bark is very interesting indeed, a very nice warm image. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!
Wow Marilyn - what a wonderful compo and rich colors!! Great image my friend! Oh yeah - I also agree with Jeff..
Excellent work love the color on the tree.
Surprises among the familiar is like Rembrandt red that appears only after you've have given up on the picture.
super colors
these trees have such a wonderful smell on warm, sunny days. Although, out by the coast there is a forest of them that smells so powerful it will empty your stomach if you spend much time in it. :-) Wonderful golden sunlight on the bark.
I see red everywhere, is it in the upper right? I often change my commute to work just so I can see something realitively New, but it is always a very pleasant surprise to see something new along the old beaten path!!!
Love it...great capture!!
Superb colours.
I always go back to the same places and see something diff. cool shot
Love the red streak bark effects -- which make the trunk and limbs look wounded and bleeding -- and background foliage in this capture, M! Eucalyptus trees are de rigueur around my condo complex. But I hate when they drip gooey black sap on the parked cars and ground.
The playground at my primary school was surrounded by eucalyptus trees, so the smell of them always takes me back to my distant past; I love that you can see the acorns (?is that what they're called?) hanging on this one. When I took the San Francisco tour they said that the eucalyptus wasn't native, but was imported by someone; and that they accidentally imported the wrong type. I don't know if that goes for all the ones that are spread all over California or just SF...anyways, this is a great shot, I've always love the streaky bark!
That bark is fascinating! We don't have those up here, as I'm sure you've noticed. :)
Interesting bark..... Aloha
Wonderful capture, Excellent well done..
It's kind of like life, we search and we search for something we've wanted or needed in our lives for so long only to discover it was there under our noses the whole time....Excellent capture!
I think we are all guilty of not looking at whats in front of us ,until of course you put a camera in our hand :o)..Excellent capture Marilyn Mick
wonderful capture warm hug, Linda
