Looking up towards the treetop of a chestnut. Its green leaves shield me from the sun which is trying to send its rays towards me.

#Birth of a #chestnut tree

#Kastanie #Keimling #seed #babyTree #Babybaum #seedling #nature

A close-up shot shows a sprouting horse chestnut seed lying amongst blades of green grass and dry leaves. The dark brown, cracked shell of the seed has split open, revealing a pale yellow and green shoot emerging from within. Small roots are visible extending from the shoot into the surrounding soil.

Horse chestnut. Not to be confused with a chestnut horse. But c'mon - in April? In this fine country, they normally bloom in late May.

dramatischer Kastanienzweig bei Nacht //
dramatic Chestnut branch at Night //
δραματική κλάδος Καστανιάς τη Νύχτα.

A scene in a city at night.
In the foreground there‘s a branch of a chestnut tree with very fresh leaves growing from the right edge of the picture to the centre.
Behind the branch there‘s a neo-classicist white building illuminated by a lantern which is also shining throught the branch touching one leave with its yellow light (lower left centre).
Between the branch and the house there‘s a small white bus driving from right to left (blurred by long exposure).
The sky is dark blue and some stars are also already shining through the fresh chestnut-leaves.

[AI-assisted description] The image shows a close-up view of a snow-covered branch of chestnut tree with two buds on it. The branch is covered in white snow, and the buds are small and yellow-greenish in color. The background appears to be blurred, suggesting that the focus is on the branch and its buds.

Horse chesnut leaves unfurling. They are deeply ribbed and droop at this stage. The sticky toffee leaf bud is seen peeled back.

The fronds are like wilted lime green tongues, still exhausted from the effort of bursting out of the spindle shaped buds

i found this tiny treasure in a toy store in stockholm
laying in a shelf next to hand puppets and sylvanian figures

i was so surprised and excited
i just took it – as if it was the most natural thing

i kept it hidden in my hand
outside i observed the little wrap carefully

what story hides behind it –
who made this package and left it there?
was i supposed to take it?
was it a reminder to kids and adults?:
„pssst - there is more than consumption
go out and loose yourself in the forest“

now it has dried
the chestnut is brown it has shrunken
rolling in the leave wrapper it makes a sizzling noise

tack så mycket, leave wrapper
