I struggled to find symmetry in nature for this prompt, but after an extended period of time spent studying my backyard, I decided to photograph this tree. I believe that this apricot tree, which is currently barren due to the season (and greedy squirrels), is the most symmetrical thing I could find in the outdoors environment around me. It is not perfect, but I decided to use it for this photo blog because I love its vibrant yellow and orange colors. In addition, I found the lighting of the photo very pleasing to the eye, and felt that it put great emphasis on the tree and its balanced quality.
