Tree Tuesday – Orcas Island Trees

Here’s a few more pictures from my recent trip to Orcas Island for tree Tuesday. At the place we were staying there was a really neat looking old stump near the beach. It had a driftwood look to it but it might have been a tree that was growing here that was cut down.

Many of the old stumps I find near beaches were driftwood that had washed ashore. I like the way that driftwood looks when it is weathered on the shore.

The following pictures were all modified by effects by Google Photos. I like the way it sets the mood of the tree photos, although the colors are not true to life.

This blue flowing bush was visible from our room and I watched a hummingbird drinking nectar from the flowers on several occasions. Many daffodils were blooming too, they are one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring.

Here’s another picture of a flowering tree that was just loaded with blooms. It was by a restaurant that we ate in at Eastsound on Orcas. Eastsound is the largest community on the island. There are only about 5000 people living on the island.

Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S9+. Tree Tuesday was started by @old-guy-photos

Notes on picture geek specifications: the zoom lens is 6mm and the wide angle lens is 4.3mm on the S9+.
