#ThickTrunkTuesday on a #ThickTrunkThursday because I got mixed up and will forget by Tuesday.

Tree in Eining, Bavaria, 2025 / one day too late .-)

For #ThickTrunkTuesday:

Two-Leaved Solomon's Seal (Maianthemum dilatatum) and Redwood bark (that's the thick trunk part obviously😉) along the Boy Scout Tree Trail at Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, California (May 2025).

I spent time in the early morning hours looking for a suitable photo to share for #ThickTrunkTuesday.

As I scrolled through my image catalog, I was reminded of how many unfortunate photos I've taken over the years. There were also a number of otherwise OK images that were taken on smartphone cameras — smeary and low resolution.

There's no deep point to this post, other than to say maybe the best camera is not necessarily the one you have with you.

A splendid tree on the slopes of Birshaw Hill, Shaw Side, Oldham, Greater Manchester.
