There is a really great paved trail that wonders all over the lava beds. Seems strange to have a lava out-cropping right out in the middle of potato fields, but that's where it at.
Wondering around and exploring gave me a chance to to unwind from my 5 hour drive. Gave me time to contemplate where I want to go with my photography. Ideas on where I need to go and what classes I need to take. Some times you just have to stop, get away from everything and clear your head.
Now back to my photo. While wondering around the lava field I noticed that all the trees there are Junipers and they are growing right out of the lava. CRAZY! Came upon this tree that never made it through the winter. I could tell as it still had last years berries on it.
So this is my photo the passing of a Juniper, it had a rough start from the get go.
Had to use my 300mm as that is what I had on my camera. Wish that I had put my macro on for this one.♥

What a great idea for the theme...I love the soft image, it is very dreamlike and very eye appealing!
Looks great, I doubt the macro would have done that much better.
The colors in this one are superb! Dreamy photo. I'm glad to be in your May-June group, Barb.
Dreamy is the word. Great photo with superb clarity in the juniper berries. The rest a bit more soft and that gives it character.
I actually think that this is a great macro, Barb. Love the colors in this image.
The colors make it look as if you'd shifted the colors in the computer--cool to know that's the way they are.
The shallow DOF does wonders for this. I think the green background is the perfect companion to the plant and berries. This is a beautiful shot. I would hang this in my home.
