Greetings to all.  This first image is from Enchanted Rock.  The trees
there have a tough life, thin soil, fires, and a lot of wind:

Junipers are a very persistent tree that grow despite most people's efforts
to eliminate them:

Must be seafaring with a list:

Another early morning shot with the sun just coming in through holes in the
canopy:

Everyone must also like crepe myrtle trunks as they are planted in a lot of
places:

The plantings around Lady Bird Lake make the city far more enjoyable.  You
would never know that Austin was the 10th largest city in the U.S. just by
a brief visit.  We have so many neighborhoods with a lot of parks and creek
beds(thanks to Spanish law they were mostly not developed early on and the
tradition continued in the Republic days.

All the best.
