Rebirth

A tree service I use always cuts our crape myrtle in back down to the wood, and every year I wonder if it will survive. Much to my amazement, it always does.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Beautiful lighting on this new growth. Not a tree we have around here.

Coming back to life for sure. Love how the light catches the new leaves.

That tree service knows what it's doing - or else the plant is just plain stubborn and determined to survive the worst wounding.

splendid shot in that counterlight!

They call it "crepe murder" here.

Our crape myrtle also seems to develop new branches in unexpected places every year. We have let ours branch out into a massive tree. Good luck. Nice lighting for this shot.

Wow, that was cut way back. I guess we need to go further back with ours. We need to see a photo of this when it is in full bloom later in the summer. So nice with this lighting. V
