I usually post photos for the WordPress weekly photo challenge on my Perfecting Motherhood blog, but I thought I’d reblog this week’s theme, since the photos I featured are quite interesting and unusual, even wrong.

I recently took some cool photos at a San Diego county park a few weeks ago, so I thought maybe something in there would fit the theme. And that’s when I found not one but two photos to share. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

The first one is the photo of a two-third dead tree. I say two thirds because its trunk split in three early on in its growth and two of them had to be cut off, probably because they weren’t doing so well. The three-trunk tree looks wrong, especially with limbs cut off, but I love how nature can make a wrong right by providing shelter in the hollow trunks for animals in need.

The second photo is of another tree where something else wrong happened with its trunk. But if you look closely, you may find something right came out of this wrong. I describe it as the hooded lady with a scarf. I love finding shapes like that!Do you see it? If you don’t, maybe there’s something “wrong” with you. 😉

After the rain, there’s a lot to see and admire outside. On that day, I found a few rain drops left on a tree branch, with a bright blue sky in the background. Perfect for a sunny yet wet photo theme.

Here are some photos of lilac trees in bloom at Dos Picos County Park, Ramona, California. I took these photos in the spring, on a cloudy day, which made for great lighting effects.

This photo below is my favorite. I have never seen grass with such a bright, light shade of green. It seemed so surreal, I knew I had to take a picture of it. I bet that grass turned dry and yellow a few weeks later, but natural green grass is such an uncommon sight in San Diego, this was a treat.

Ramona lilacs have smaller flowers than regular lilac trees and they don’t smell anything (the disappointing part) but they’re still very beautiful.

Here’s the whole picture, with the lush green grass in the front and the many lilac trees in the back.

I took this photo of the forest while walking in Dos Picos County Park, Ramona, California. The light and the sight were just right I knew I had to snap a photo of it. This enchanted forest looks like it popped right out of a fairy tale.
