In this busy and high paced world finding quiet and solitude takes some effort. Nature is a place to find that solitude and quiet. A strange feeling came over me as I stood there looking at the tree. I like the feeling. I hear no cars or sirens. I hear and feel the wind as it blows against my back. The clouds slowly move eastward. The tree stands alone. I like that feeling.

Now that looks like a nice, quiet place to be. If it were to get a bit warm, I might have to go to the tree, though, and sit a spell. 🙂

If’n it were July and August I would agree. We could continue our conversation.

You managed to get all the elements coming together on this one, Monte. Very nice.

And, when the elements are simple we can have a powerful image.

We definitely seek relief in the quiet places, and this looks like one. Very nice photo.

Yes, this soul needs places and times such as this.

Wonderful scene, the clouds are beautiful Monte. The silence is perfectly reflected in the simplicity of your composition. It has me thinking that I could use some of that silence at the moment.

That’s probably something more of us could use. We have a society surrounded with sound. There’s probably not a store, restaurant and businesses without piped in music. Then add the cars, sirens, jets overhead and we hear little of nature. Just saying…..
