White willow this last late spring. #ThickTrunkTuesday
A somewhat distant shot of a white willow tree that nevertheless completely fills and floods the frame. The dark blonde bark, ridged and criss-crossed like argyle or cable knit, rises along the thick central trunk, then a series of arms--some nearly as thick as the trunk itself--reach out like giants' fingers from which massive arrays of dendrites covered in the last remnants of olive and gold late spring leaves arc a canopy across the sky as patches and glints of sunlight show through. It is like an EEG scan of a leafy brain, full of electricity and shadows and warmth.
