This is the new green growth on one of our little maple trees. We purchased it a few years ago as a starter Bonsai from a local nursery. It's since been transplaneted into a 2 gallon pot and is very happy. I don't generally leave our bonsai in small pots or they won't survive the hot summers we have.
I appreciate other photographer's comments (pro or con), on all of my photos.

Baobab: The Tree of Life
Comfortable and unique living accommodation, complete with windowsThe Baobab is called the Tree of Life with good reason. It is capable of providing shelter, food and water for the animal and human inhabitants of the African savannah regions.
The cork-like bark is fire resistant and is used for cloth and rope. The leaves are used for condiments and medicines. The fruit, called "monkey bread", is rich in vitamin C and is eaten. The tree is capable of storing hundreds of litres of water, which is tapped in dry periods.
Mature trees are frequently hollow, providing living space for numerous animals and humans alike. Trees are even used as bars, barns and more. The Baobab also features as the Tree of Life in Disney's "Lion King", and is the centrepiece in Disney's Animal Kingdom.
Radio-carbon dating has measured that age of some Baobab trees at over 2,000 years old.
