Jakes challenge this week is “Captivating.” http://jakesprinters.wordpress.com/2013/03/03/sunday-post-captivating/
I took the following photo of my neighbor’s tree during our last big snow storm this year. For some reason I find it delightful and can sit and look at it for a long time — enjoying the texture, the shape, and the ‘whiteness’ of it. I guess you could say I find it “captivating.”

I live in Virginia. Here it is March and this is our first snowstorm (wet, heavy snow).
I was out this morning, shaking the branches of my river birch tree…which…just like this tree has limbs bending to the ground. I took some photos, because it is very pretty when they bend over with snow…but…trees with many trunks can split in half because of the weight.
Using a broom, I did my best to brush off some of the snow. My neighbors probably thought i was crazy, out there “sweeping” a big tree as the snow is still coming down fast and furious..
I was actually a little worried about my neighbor’s tree, since it has so many small trunks — like you’re talking about. But he didn’t seem to be concerned. I did enjoy the beauty, though, and thankfully, his tree seems to be okay now.
Even the house in the background is a cool blue colour, captivating indeed Sandra I love it!
I can see why you were captivated by this tree. It is beautiful
Captivating indeed. There is something magical about snow, it’s whiteness, the crisp, clean smell of Winter’s air…love this post!
