Barton Creek only flows when there has been rain. During the rainy season the rocky creek bed is filled with water to the height of the first step. So, if you look closely you will see a rope swing to swing out over the pool and splash in. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/Rope+swing+and+ladder+for+swimming+hole.jpg.html This next one is simply a texture play as imaged. What attracted me was that the tree was almost horizontal and I was shooting from the far bank: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/oak+on+Barton+Creek.jpg.html This next image is of some happy willows still fresh from water down further in the rocks. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/Willow+on+Barton+Creek.jpg.html Last, we have an oak that is doing a good job growing on rock with almost no soil to speak of. An unseen tap root is digging into a crack in the rocks for water: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/don_dory_gmail_com/Tuesday+Trees/Oak+growing+into+rock+Bzarton+Creek.jpg.html Enjoy, and keep pushing that button, we need images for the yearbook.
