Sometimes nature will provide magical combinations of light and mood. These ancient vine covered trees on a small isthmus between two ponds had that wondrous timeless spirit.

Many thanks, David for featuring my Ancient Trees in Midwest American Photography. It's such an honor and I'm delighted to be chosen. Forest Park in St. Louis is a wonderful city park, filled with old and magnificent trees, flowers, wildlife, birds (herons and ducks) a zoo, an art museum....just at this moment waiting for spring and my camera to explore.

Thank you, Melly. This urban park is quite old and the trees which have survived over the years are truly essays in endurance and grace.
