Look Closer - From a distance, it looked like a white-headed bird was on top of the main trunk of this tree. Upon closer examination, it becomes part of the tree. My photos this year will get a Closer Look!

Ricky says: 

It seems change is inevitable, and most of you know big changes are happening in my world. I'm zero concerned about it. I can fight it and be miserable, or I can go with the flow and let the winds of change just take me to where I should be. This concept is both real and metaphorical. We had snow - and while taking this...blizzard velocity winds. I opted to take a photo of our little "Mirkwood" forest with the bird houses and prayer flags (and a raven) and start at left with a BnW pencil sketch that transitions into a BnW photo, that transitions into color, that transitions into something colorful and abstract. Transition - not necessarily a bad thing.
