New, better pictures.
The pictures won't go in order...that's annoying...
OK, black needles are obvious so I haven't marked them.
Another picture are some of the brown/yellow needles. Note that some are brown on the sides, others on the tips. This is just inside the range of focus on my wife's digital camera (I'd prefer film, but that's not practical today...maybe I need a nice Nikon digital SLR to diagnose this problem with my tree...hmmmm).
Finally some more browning needles. These are a little fuzzy too, and you can see the razor-sharp focus on the bottom right. Sorry.
The general spottyness on the leaves is from some hard water marks, but some of them are little brown spots that I'm not going to try to photograph today. Could the little spots be the beginnings of the big spots? I wonder.
It's just odd that these come and go, rather than just killing the needle. At least the brown spots anyway...the black stuff looks awfully nasty and I've cut that all out of the tree already.
Well, happy pondering. I hope somebody has some suggestions.
Thanks!
