Our entire property is probably 80% trees but the kids have this one massive Hemlock tree that they love to climb and play in. The area around the tree is perfect for creating fairy houses and clubhouses, you can climb to the tippy top and see for, what I would guess is, miles, having never done it myself :). It is the epitome of the perfect childhood tree, magical and wonderous if only I could capture half of that magic.
I will have to go back when I can get some shots of all the kids in it so that you all can really see the scale and the whole tree.
I played with some color tonight, trying a greener version, a bluer version and a redder, color popped version. :)
She is at ground level from this side of the tree but on the other side you can see that it is probably 5 or 6 feet up. This is because there is a ledge that abuts the tree on one side that allows the kids to walk right up and into the tree so she is standing on the ground and on tree branches all at the same time.

That is so funny , and what great memories to photograph~!
What a cool tree! I'd love to see the whole thing.
Great captures and good job with the colors!
Do all three kids still go down to the tree? I don't think my DS would climb a tree anymore unless there was a hot girl at the top.
These are such happy photos; I love the way the shadows are on her in the third shot.
Looks like they are having so much fun! These are all great.
