Project 365 [Day 158] Tree Swing on the Farm at Sunset
This is one of my favorite places in our backyard, and of course if you have been around this site for a while you will recognize the tree swing, but I keep finding unique ways to shoot it. I’m working on getting all the photos on my site of this swing to be searchable through…

Massive Fog Bank Settles over Our Auburn Trees :: P365 [Day 8]
![Massive Fog Bank Settles over Our Auburn Trees :: P365 [Day 8]](https://scottfillmer.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/3sf_6559.jpg?w=1024)
Every year as the seasons change this tree puts on a different face. I’m guessing I have taken 100’s of photos of this one particular tree, and every shot looks different. Today we had a fog-bank cloud descend over the property making visibility a few hundred feet or so giving me this shot. The weather…

Memorial Day Flag Flying from Auburn Alabama
I am glad we still celebrate Memorial Day in this country. Somehow it seems that as the political correctness of our culture takes over everything we end up loosing an understanding of what made this country great in the first place. It sickens me to see stories like the one of the Iraq veteran who…

Fog on a Never End Cycle of Rain in the Southern Winter
Fog on a never end cycle of rain in the south in the winter. You can see the puddles around the tree swing, and the dreariness in the air. Somewhere Spring is coming.

Storms Arriving in Auburn as We Leave for Gulf Shores
Last weekend we tried to go camping but the rain never really let up. Not only did it not let up, but the severe weather down in the gulf kept getting worse so we decided to give it a go this weekend. We are or were pretty avid campers in the day and we have…

Crazy Weather with 70 Degrees and Snow in Auburn
This has has been a crazy Saturday weather wise. Started off with tornado and thunderstorm warnings all over the place and turned into a nice sunny and rather warm day at 70*, but tonight, there is snow expected. I think we are well below the actual snow line if there is one but non-the-less, we…

Beautiful December Day with Valkyrie Movie :: Friday Feet
This was probably once of the nicest late December days that I can remember. It was over 70* with partly cloudy, blue sky and I ended up working outside all day. We ended up taking down our Christmas lights today and replacing them with our “everyday lights” which will remain up the rest of the…

The North Star and Long Exposure Star Trails
If you have been following the progress of our tree and tree swing, it now has just about no leaves on it at all, so last night I decided to take advantage of the very dark night out here and do a long exposure of the tree showing the North Star. This shot was a…

Another Beautiful and Colorful Fall Day in Alabama
What a difference just a few days makes in the fall. This is what our tree (and swing) looked like this afternoon. Compare that to this Fall Has Finally Arrived in Alabama, and My Swing Loves It, taken just a few days ago. It was a totally different time of day of course, but the…

Our place is covered in a small forest of pine trees and just a few hard wood trees which are mostely these Sweetgum Tree which most people around this part of the country consider…

View of Our House from a Tree Swing :: Friday Feet
This is sort of a follow up to Do You Have a Quiet and Peaceful Place to Hide? which for some reason is one of my highest traffic posts and also A Foggy Summer Morning in Auburn Alabama (both different views of the swing). This is yet another view from our tree swing, this time…

Photo of Spiderweb in Fog Shows Delicate Beauty
What a busy weekend it was this past week. Being a holiday weekend with the 4th of July on a Friday it was just a little chaotic but all tranquility of a Monday has returned. I think I would have to qualify a Monday or Tuesday in January or February as the most tranquil, but…
