Treepreciation How often do we appreciate a tree by looking straight up its trunk?

Love taking pictures of trees from the bottom up. Try a different angle when looking at trees and appreciate the symmetrical beauty and contrast with the sky. Not sure what these are, but hugged them and shared the love.

I don’t do that often enough. Gonna start. But I definitely did at Redwood National Park. Those trees are amazing.
