Come with me to a place on the southeastern side of Cincinnati. A site that is located not too far from the Ohio river. This place is filled with rolling hills covered with families of trees and crisscrossed with long winding trails that seem to go on forever. Listen quietly and you can hear the birds chattering away, talking about the latest bird gossip. Get lost in the woods and discover new and interesting plants and trees. It’s a great place to be on a warm and sunny winter day.

Thank you.

Nice Seth, you’ve found California! Hahaha. Nice. Looks exactly like a place we go to on the outskirts of Berlin – Müggelsee – I can see my daughter running through those trees, but, we still buried in snow and minus numbers. These pics are light in the tunnel. Very Nice. Thanks
Like button seems to be working with Internet Explorer. still have my Chrome browswer open though; Bad habits die hard.
It’s Ohio. So very much like Germany. That’s why we had a lot of Germans move to this area. Not sure why it’s named California.
Don’t tempt fate, Seth, you might wake up in the morning and it’s called Lübensteiner Wald. Prost.
:)..
Reminds me of walking and hiking in areas of my youth. very familiar feeling. Thanks Seth
Welcome. Thanks for viewing.
I hope you go back for the wildflowers! 🙂
I will. I actually captured some wild flowers and will post them soon.
I love “Laid To Rest” it’s a natural little bridge. Great shots Seth. Love how your perspective captures hidden gems!
Thanks Tasha. I think forest pictures are the hardest to take.(Esp in the summer). It’s so beautiful when you are there but it often looks busy in a photo. 🙂
Great Pics!
Thank you so much. Glad you like them.
Spectacular shots.
Thanks Eric.
‘Remains’ is pretty stark and beautiful. The monochrome highlights the only exception: the green of decay that will soon turn vibrant with the dawn of spring. thank you for sharing this.
Thanks.Glad you like that one. :).
Felt like I had a nice stroll with you pointing out the best parts. Thanks!
Thanks Kami.

Great Pic.
Thanks for the reblog. 🙂
I love this series and I couldn’t help but think of a scene in Seigfried, the third opera in Wagner’s opera tetralogy, Der Ring des Nibelungen. The story is too long to summarize, in total the Ring ends up being about a 16 hour opera. Siegfried finds himself in a forest that murmurs to him and ultimately a bird speaks to him (the flute). The music is beautiful and seems to fit well with your pictures. I apologize for the long comment, but I love opera, adore Wagner, and I’m absolutely obsessed with the Ring. Check out the music for yourself on youtube here…
Wow. thanks for sharing. 🙂
What a beautiful wood! I can smell it from here. Thanks for the lovely walk. And I enjoyed Mr Table’s music!
Me too. Nice music. Thanks.
I love old oaks. Thick trunks and widespread branches covered in leaves. But whenever I see the type of trees you have taken such lovely pics of I for some reason think of young warriors..
Good thoughts. Thanks.
Absolutely love pictures of the woods, trees, branches and all. Nicely shot.
Thanks Rustic Recluse.

I like the character photo most due a very strong perspective between me and the trees. 🙂
Thanks Tienny.

I like the way you present your images – it captures my imagination!
Thanks Jude.
O! Hi :)) O..Ohio trees you have no leaves , still you mange to please the eyes that sees, your barks and branches, fallen leaves..dead trees..laid in waiting..shivering ..and facing the ground at peace..once was high standing tall..like a King who never thought his monarchy could fall..in time and seasons..in winter sunny days..Ohio..come again
Thanks Kalabalu.
🙂
