“Keep your face to the sun and you will never see the shadows.”
― Helen Keller
I miss being at work and this shot is from my archives is from right where my office is. Cities have developed and are loaded with sky scrapers, but it’s good to see those trees around in the urban landscapes. Agree that there could have been more but trying to find the good around.
Thursday Tree love is a photo feature hosted on this blog on every 2nd and 4th Thursday of a month. The next edition will go live on March 25, 2021. If you would like to play along, post a picture of a tree on your blog, tell me where did you spot the tree and link it back to this post.
If you don’t see the pingback, please leave a link to your post in my comments section. Please make sure that your post’s link is showing up on this latest edition. I will link your posts on my blog in the next edition and spread some love. Let’s come together to appreciate the beautiful nature around us.

There’s just something about tree branches against blue sky that never fails to make me smile! And I love the quote you picked to go with it, Parul. Great pairing for today, and I agree – it’s helps trying to find the good in something.
Here’s my contribution (even though technically it stopped being Thursday here almost an hour ago…lol).

I’ve always enjoyed this Thursday Tree Love edition of yours and watching trees during my walks. Now, finally I have started taking photos just to see how much they change over time. So happy I could share my photos from the next edition Parul.
I’ve come to love trees more after watching one in particular right out of my window for a year now. That makes me want to take more pictures of trees as a good memory. I remembered trees at work after seeing this. That’s like a major throwback to me to before 5 years! 😀
