Photo Hunter: Flexible

photohunters.gif


This week's Photo Hunt is Flexible
Flexible
is:
1. Capable of being bent or flexed; pliable.
2. Capable of being bent repeatedly without injury or damage.
3. Susceptible to influence or persuasion; tractable.
4. Responsive to change; adaptable
I went with the following picture which defines flexible as in Capable of being bent; Pliable and also Adaptable.
These trees bend with the weight of the snow, but the bush/tree is also adaptable to the changing weather and temperatures.

This photo was NOT taken in Southern California, but was taken a few years back when I was living in Switzerland.

A friendly reminder of what's to come in the next few months. I never looked at branches to be so flexible before, but this winter I will be aware of it. Great choice for this week and have a good weekend.

Mark said...

Hi Sabine,
I think of all things nature has to be the most flexible at adapting to the environment around it as it is constanly changing with what we are doing to it.

Cheers Mark

WOw, what a wonderful photo. Reminds of the story about the reed that was flexible enough to bend when the winds blew, not unlike the big oak tree.

Have a great weekend SabineM :)
