I marvel at these trees growing in the water. It is a very graceful image and the greens are so soft and lovely. Framing is A-1 too. Beautiful capture, Anita.

Looks like the reaction to your tree is outstanding. it is indeed beautiful. I love the various shades of green in it. That river is very pretty also. When I get free to travel, one of these dys, I want to go to that area and do some photography. Great capture.

Well now ... isn't this just a grand shot of a tree I never get to see where I am. Thank you Anita for this posting. Well composed and very clear. The base of that trunk is outstanding. One of the best Cypress tree pics I've seen but don't tell PatAndre I said that ... you know her and her "shotgun" ... I don't want any trouble.
