ReplyDeleteit's a beautiful tree
ReplyDeleteLarch trees turn such a beautiful gold before they drop their needles.
ReplyDeleteEven when it fades, it looks gorgeous! Lovely shots.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember ever seeing a larch before...what a lovely tree.
ReplyDeleteWonderful details of the cones in the first shot.
ReplyDeleteHappy Macro Monday
Didn't know there are deciduous conifers. Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if my 1st comment went through.
ReplyDeleteYour 1st photo is wonderful. Such great detail.
I could see where having a Larch as a Christmas tree would pose a big problem. - Although we've had a few fir trees that looked a bit like that after a week or so. Cut too soon.
