Light through Trees

Light through Trees, 12th Street and Harrison, Astoria, Oregon June 15, 2010

The brilliant yellow-green light created by the sun coming through the new leaves caught my attention and I had to stop and take a few photos. I'm afraid the small size doesn't do justice to the scene, and it might help some to click on the photo and enlarge it.

This could also be part of the never-ending series of "Houses on Hills." This is a somewhat unusual exterior for Astoria, as it's left in the wood-shingled finish. It looks perfect in its tree-shrouded setting high above the corner of 12th Street and Harrison.

  3. You're right...it needs to be enlarged. And it's always about the light! This is superb!

  4. This really is a gorgeous tree - with beautiful light light filtering through the leaves.

    I like the reflections in those windows as well - the same tree in reverse!
