By Scott Shephard
Some would look at this see the vine on the oak tree as more of an enemy than an ally. But I like the idea of symbiotic relationships, especially those that do no harm even if they aren’t completely cooperative. In the case of this particular tree, I would say that the vine enhances it — at least for photographic purposes. And both the tree and vine seemed healthy. If the curly haired painter Bob Ross were painting this, he would call this “A happy little tree with a happy little vine.” I wouldn’t.
