I was looking through some of my photos and found some similarities– no matter where I move or travel to, apparently I have a fondness for taking pictures of certain things/people/signs/silliness (I’m getting ahead of myself)…
Anyway, I’ve decided to put together a few (brief) compilations of my findings.
Apparently I Have A Fondness For… taking pictures of trees. If you couldn’t tell from this picture of me standing in the middle of the Scottish countryside while rain poured all around me, I enjoy nature.
So here goes– some of the trees I enjoy:
The trees of Sugar Pine where I grew up…
Great tree in Central Park snow…
Trees growing on Thimble Islands off the coast of Connecticut…
Tree covered entrance on the Isle of Skye…
Leaning palm tree in West Palm Beach storm…
Crooked tree and crooked lamp-post in Central Park…
Odd tree roots along Lewis Creek (that I’m convinced the fairy folk live in)…
And last but not least, (my mom and stepdad walking amongst) the trees and leaves of autumn in Central Park…

I don’t think I’ve ever consciously taken photos of trees, but I do love them. Willows in particular remind me of Poland, my grandmother’s street in the middle of a small town on the eastern side of the country. Sadly, I learned not too long ago that the city cut down all the willows not too long ago and the street looks nothing like it used to.
That is a lovely picture of your mom and dad in Central Park.
