Dead weeds in font of an old barn becomes magical in the right light.

More Peach Orchard
This peach orchard is kind of like music with fugue-like repetitions, theme and variations as well a kind of outburst of things that seem to arise unexpectedly.
Woods and Flowers
The light, shadows and forms of the woods are very satisfying. Some work better for me in color and others in black and white. The latter is true for me in flowers as well.
OLLI Jocassee Trip
The Furman University OLLI took a guided tour led by Scott Withrow , a retired Furman History professor. What I enjoyed the most was the presentations of the history, the woods and some of the old builings, especially the old Presbyterian church.
More West Greenville
The backs and sides of old commercial buildings frequently contain visual treaures.
Roadside Tangle
When we ride around I see all sorts of things like old buildings covered by kudzu, interesting especially in winter when the leaves are gone and there is only a tangle of vines. The old garage is across the street from a stream which is also uncovered by loss of kudzu leaves.
Water
Water reflects, flows, breaks up light and supports growth. I found these while wandering through some of my older files; fun stuff.

Around the Farm
Old farms have great, old outbuildings, weed growth and undisturbed dandelions. I love the blues and greys of the barn side and the weeds growing alongside adds touch of color. The old barn also is a container of history and I imagine the people who used it. The large green leaves on the rusted barrel top and the vines growing growing up the side of the barn are kind of like music. Finally, who can resist a dandelion in full seed ready to parachute off to the next field ?
