Very nice photos to start this challenge. I love photographing trees as we have so many cottonwoods on the farm.
This is one of my favorites of a photo I took of horses in a cottonwood forest.

Very nice Karin, do you what type of trees these are?

Karin, I don't have many images of trees, other than forests. However, I did find these 2 shots.
The first was taken a few winters ago. I was on a group nature walk in a local state forest. The day was miserable - cold and dreary, no birds or wildlife worth shooting. I got it into my head to shoot upward.
The second was taken on a short walk at the Grand Canyon. People all over the place! I spotted this lone tree, and just went for it.

That first photo is wonderful. I have done this a few times laying on my back looking up.

Thanks for hosting, Karin. Sure to be popular! Here are a few from this icy week with more ice and snow to come.
Trees take on a whole new look when they are covered in frost. Very nice images.

This one is from several hundred feet away. I spotted it through the trees with all its leaves right after a big snow storm.
I like how this tree is framed by branches. Beautiful.

Very nice photos. I especially like the bark on the Aspens.

Great start and thanks for hosting, Karin. I'm sure you're
going to see all kinds of trees.
I have quite a few, so in no particular order, here are some gnarly ones.

I actually think this is several trees in one.

I've never seen a tree that had so many branches coming off the main trunk.

Pg 2 - Great images, Kat. Some of these look like
the sparse trees we saw in Aruba. (We were expecting
a "lush" tropical island, but Aruba is a desert island
with far more cacti than trees.)
The most common tree in Aruba is the Divi Divi tree
which looks like the ones in the last two images.

Good start, Karen. Thanks for hosting.
I saw lots of trees in Yellowstone NP a couple of weeks ago. I'll share a few.
Unusual lone tree on an expansive plain in the park.
