An Awesome View of Life

Freak of Nature? This can be seen from the window.  At first I thought it was something crawling up the tree.  I grabbed my camera and stood in the middle of the yard and zoomed in as much as I could.  Turns out it is just some kind of fungus?  (:  If anyone knows what this is please let me know.  

Reflecting. A bit ticked with this photo.  It took me THIRTY shots to get what I wanted and by the time I got what I wanted with the wine glass there was no longer blue skies!  ): Another thing -- I  should have had a plain glass.  No logo.   But what I love and strove to capture was the full reflection of the background in my glass of wine with the real tree, bird feeders and fence in the background.  The reflection of the tree on the table and in the stem of the glass just adds to the layers of reflecting. So overall -- I'm quite pleased with the outcome.
