Mary's Lake Elm



          Well although you cannot see a date on this photo, it was done last June. It is good to get some practice doing plants you see in the woods. I had taken an old bike 2 blocks over to the lake trail mid morning. I was hoping to find just what I did-  on the north side of the circle walk south of the Nature Center there was an elm sapling catching the sun just as I had seen it a few days before.  As I was standing there straddling the bike and sketching one of the girls from the center came by collecting leaf specimens for one of the classes she was teaching later that day.  The drawing was  a great learning experience for me.  I do not think an elm leaf made it to the class however.

  1. Love this, because it's so different a perspective than you usually do.
