From Cee:
Wood or the Season of Spring. In the description of of the Wood Element you can maybe get some ideas for your entry.
People who have strong energy of the Wood element have a clear vision and goals, and know how to bring them into being. They excel at planning and decision making. Their piercing, penetrating eyes may attract you. Color for wood is green.

Part of an old oak tree root, cut out to try to keep it from doing anymore damage to our driveway!
I have no idea what this little flowering plant is called. I also have no idea if it it was taken on THE spring day we might have had a few months ago here in Central Florida! 😉

Another wonderful collection for a challenge Linda. That art piece is fabulous!
Thanks, Sue! I thought it was such an unusual piece. 😀
These are all great shots but I have to agree with Sue that art piece is an attention grabber!
It is definitely a different kind of piece! 🙂
Beautiful woods and flowers! The Basswood looks very special. Is it a carving?
Thanks so much, Amy! I’m completely guessing here but I think it was pieced together with pieces of the basswood. I could be completely wrong but the description of the piece at the gallery didn’t indicate how he put it together.
you are talented!
Thanks, Cindy. Just trying to follow your example! Hugs! 😀
A lovely set Linda, perfect for the challenge! 🙂
Thanks so much, Amanda! 🙂
very impressive – there aren’t words to compliment you – your work speak by itself!!
Thank you so much for kind words and high praise! I’m so glad you like these! 😀
My favorite is the dock photo. Would love to be there right now! Hmmm- the one of the root is pretty cool too. The knot hole on the right looks like a dragon eye.
I think the dock is my favorite, too! It’s old but it has a nice view! LOL! I hadn’t noticed that about the knot hole on that big root but you’re absolutely right! 🙂
The Basswood art piece is spectacular. I adore the bridge too….OK I adore all your photos. Thanks 🙂
Hehheh, thanks, Cee! I’m glad you like! 😀
well doen! I love them all and especially the bridge, where one view is slowly drawn furhter and further into the picture.
Have a wonderful weeeknd, you talented woman!
Aw, Johanna, you’re too kind! Many thanks! And many hugs! 😀
I love the photo of the pier so serene. Lovely selection of photos.

Lovely photos for the challenge! My favourite is definitely the wooden pier. Would like to spend a sunny afternoon with a good book here
Thanks! It is a lovely spot — but way too hot right now to enjoy! 90s and quite humid! 😛
You have come a long way. The second picture is exquisite!
Wow, thanks so much, Rommel! 😀

Love the photo of the old wooden pier…Hey Linda how do you know if you have strong wood energy compared to another element? And what do the other elements represent? would love to learn more…
I wish I had answers for you. I actually copied that statement above from Cee’s challenge page! She may know more. You can get to her page by clicking on her logo above underneath my pictures! 🙂
