Trees very rarely stay still for a photo! To capture the gentle breeze as it caresses the first leaves of spring is a challenge that I was willing to accept.

To add a little camera movement at the time the shutter flickers is to add a little of what I saw there....that day.....back into the image.

These beauties are no longer static, they dance, they burn and they flicker. The woodland floors sparkle and glisten as the sun catches the fresh undergrowth.

The woodland is alive. The tres are full of energy if you just take the time to see.
