What a Puzzle

A tree but not a forest; the theme for Mono Monday.  I think this rather fine specimen of a Monkey Puzzle tree fits the bill.

I've noticed before that when I get back from holiday I lose my Blip mojo.  It's partly having had so many great photo opportunities and then getting back to having to look for something, partly feeling a bit flat after a great holiday, and also having around 900 shots I took on holiday to sort through and organise.  I've definitely lost it at the moment but it will come back; I'll still blip every day but for the time being until I am 'back' I think it is only fair to pause comments for a little while until I can give it the time it deserves.
