This tree completes the set of four………….  fingers are aching!!!  The work has been done for the year, its now time to prepare for the long period of slumber and regeneration, shedding the past, shedding that which no longer serves us……….tree-shedding-4

White on white has not been the easiest colour to photograph, need to do my homework here!!tree-shedding-4-detail1

abundance, I love that word it conjures up so much in my mind…………  picture no 3, the tree is now in the fullness of its green summer coat and the fruits of the  pollinated  flowers are beginning to grow.  Mother earth is working hard now and is in full flow……..tree-abundance-3tree-abundance-3-detail

this is no 2 in the series, when the day light lengthens and mother awakens from slumber, slowly new life begins its upward journey from the darkness, shoots burst through the soil and buds burst open upon the tree, like white frothy lace adorning the the branches,tree-awakening-2tree-awakening-2-detail

since my previous posting I have been hard at it with scalpel, my new scissors and reams of paper !…………………..   this one is the first in series of 4 trees, all reflecting the cycles of life.  This first one is the winter, when mother earth rests in deepest slumber.  The day light hours are short while she takes stock and replenishes herself in readiness for the vigours of spring.
