Mathew ( dennis9 ) That's an interesting "pine" tree. Looks like a giant bonsai tree. Nice photos. Thanks, Clive |

A scruffy black bear (they come in many colors) still sporting winter fur came though our summer place development today. It was finally shooed off. As close to "natural" as I want to get.    |

Shrubby cinquefoil, Potentilla fruticosa. Flowering shrub native to many parts of North America and common in our foothills and mountains. Popular garden shrub and flowers from June and throughout summer. Wild one growing near the Castle River in SW Alberta, June 18, 2021  |

Another take on natural - ran across this piece of rock with many fossils in it today - very old and very natural ...  Tony |

While my first instinct was to go to the refrigerator, where I did have a few Natural food items, I decided to go with these Natural gifts from the sea collected over the years. Helen, nice decision -- going for the seashells. I like the 2nd shot with the up-close approach to them. |

Another take on natural! We have a robins nest in a bush just outside and at a height where it's easy to get a photo. Mother is friendly and is used to people coming and going. After two weeks of sitting on the four eggs she has now hatched them all within the last few days. Both parents are now busy feeding the nestlings and in a couple of weeks they will be big enough to leave the nest. Ugly little things at the moment but definitely natural! Tony, great shot! Pretty soon they won’t be ugly things any longer. Mother Nature knows best! |

Thanks for using the theme Sepiana! I'll continue to look for a natural gorilla climbing a tree, but until then here are some natural flowers. Bill, beautiful image. I love the pastel colors of these flowers. Very natural! Looking forward to seeing a natural gorilla. Check the Zoo! |

Natural seed distribution. Isn't Mother Nature clever, just a puff of wind needed. Dennis Dennis, this is Natural at its best! Impressive capture of a dandelion dispersing its seeds. Frame and hang these images on the wall. |

Noctilucent "clouds" here. Clive, nice interpretation of Natural. These are interesting clouds (and appropriately called "night-shining"). |

Didn't capture the detail of the lower clouds like I wished it would I was drawn to take this photo because of the way the upper clouds looked so different from the lower It looks like someone photoshopped the upper clouds onto this photo Janice, nice finding. This is indeed an unusual cloud formation (as if a storm is brewing). |

Mule deer doe with naturally long eyelashes.  Clive, she is a natural and her eyelashes do catch our attention. Great capture! |

In Oaks Park this afternoon I saw this strange tree, with interesting natural twisting of the trunk. Matthew Matthew, what a naturally twisted tree trunk! I really like how you took two shots from different angles to let the viewers get an all-around view of it. |

It took a couple tries, but I finally got one with no motion blur. Thanks again Sepiana! Bill, what a shot! Great job capturing this slimy little critter (a very natural one). |
