Live Oaks in Bray Park, about 3 to 4 acres just like this |
See below the word ME shows the woods above from Google Earth and Hubby is where he plays with his planes.
Yesterday I took Me, Myself and My Rebel and Coolpix for a 1 1/2 hour browse for new post pics.
The first thing I noticed were these leaves shining in the sun and as I stood and tried to figure out what was eating on them, I snapped just a few shots.
When I walked around the tree, I realized it is a Purple Orchid Tree. Tomorrow I will show you the Orchids and then LOOK OUT for all the Stuff I found...... over 100 pics and enough Fence Foto's for a month of Friday Fences.
Yes, the header is a preview of the orchids......

I love the blooms of the Purple Orchid Tree in your header. Can't wait to see the whole tree. Bray Park looks like a fantastic park to explore and find tons of photo ops.
Love your header picture! Can't wait to see more. Looks like you had a great day to be out.
I love to see the veins in the leaves when the light is behind them.
I love your header.
Exciting! If these pictures are a foretaste of what is to come,I can hardly wait. It can be very easy to get 100 or more pictures in an area.Looking forward to upcoming posts.
LOVELY new Header!!!
Oh I love those trees. Oh what a wonderful, magical place to be able to visit!!! -happy sigh-
Hubby is a flying enthusiast, hu. My good friend makes such planes. :-)
We are born with whirlwinds, forest fires, and comets inside us. We are born able to sing to birds and read the clouds and see our destiny in grains of sand. But then we get the magic educated right out of our souls.

This is a beautiful park...nice to live so close to it. Lovely orchids
Drop my jaw on the header shot gal! Awesome!!!
You are blessed to have a lovely park so near, what a photographers dream. Will be looking for your post tomorrow.

the green of those leaves is beautiful!
Love the first pic of the oak trees-wish I could walk there too.
I love the first photo and I look forward to more orchids!
That park looks amazing. Beautiful photos of the leaves.
If your header is a foretaste of pictures to come, I can hardly wait. Have you found out what is eating the leaves. We've had so many trees destroyed by pests in this area that I would hate to see something happen to the trees in this beautiful park.
Sandra, I love these...can't wait I see the rest!
Your photos are stunning look forward to following and seeing more.
I really like your photos.The ones with the leaves are so cool, when the sun is shining through them. Looking forward to see your orchids tomorrow :) Enjoy your Day! Big hugs x
Hi Sandra, Your header is awesome. Love that color of your orchid bloom.
Great pictures also from the park. That is a great park --and I'm sure there are TONS of places there to get good pictures. Looking forward to more!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
Your header is perfect, I have been forgetting to tell you, I like the purple MadSnapper, too. I love the leaves, let us know if you find out what's been eating them!!! I also really like seeing this park map and where Bob flies. Can't wait to see your post tomorrow!
Dear Sandra, this looks like a real oak wood.I am glad you posted Google Earth photo. I now have a better idea about your position and how the Park looks like from the air.Your photos are beautiful and your header photo is fantastic.
i love to see the sunlight hitting those pretty leaves.
gorgeous photos as always.
looks like you 've had a great time outdoors.
lovely header, too.
Your header is stunning. What a neat place to take your cameras to. I bet they were very happy and I look forward to the rest of the 100 photos. :)
Oh, I love days when I have time to explore. Most of the time it's rush, rush, rush to get from one place to another. Less than 3 minutes and I better have the picture made. Love what you found and hope you have a good rest-of-the-week.
Love that first shot of all the trees. That looks an awesome park. That also sounds like a lot of fun, an hour and half of snapping. I need to get out and do that but it's just too darn cold
That orchid is exquisite. Looking forward to the rest of your photos.
I love the blooms of the Purple Orchid Tree in your header. So what was eating the leaves?
Can't wait to see the whole thing. Nice you got out to visit something different. Love, sandie
we have this Purple Orchid Tree. in Singapore and Malaysia, bur we don't call them orchids.
Gosh, this really is a very pretty park. So many wonderful things to see!
