From a recent trip up the West Fork of the Greenbriar River valley, a beautiful but not dramatic place. This is a yellow birch, Betula alleghaniensis, surrounded by rhododendrons, R. maximum, in full bloom. The composition is of the masses of textures, more apparent in a large print.

Betula alleghaniensis on the West Fork of the Greenbriar. Sometimes size does matter. There is another dimension to this image that is suggested here, but you need to see a largish print to really see it. If I ever decide it is worth having another show this will be in it.
