I can think of no other place (in the world) that offers as much drama and interest as Dinorwic slate quarry. It probably missed it's opportunity to be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site as so much of it is becoming dangerous and inaccessible to the general public.
This tree is naturally pale and sits near the bottom of the biggest and deepest hole in Dinorwic quarry
It's not really worth a million dollars, but the people who see it all day have named it their Million Dollar Tree. It's an old maple in east Memphis and is just gorgeous in the fall.

This tree is in my neighbours garden and it caught my eye as the reds shone out as the sun was setting low - it was a feast for the eye! Absolutely gorgeous - must buy one when we build our house!

The sudden late snow made this tree into an item of fascination and beauty and yet there was a sense of loneliness, a longing for the forest that suddenly filled me.
I am delighted that others find some inspiration in this picture which was taken from the window of the Appenzeller Bahn train in Switzerland while on the move between Appenzell and Gonten.
This photo has now become the logo for www.WeForest.com to restore forests so that our trees are no longer alone.

Thursday I'm going to the hospital for open heart surgery. Say a prayer for my doctor, that the Lord will show him the best way to get me through this. I should be back in a couple of weeks.
I've been keeping my mind occupied by taking pictures with my new camera. It's just what I needed for some inspiration. I'll post some of my new pictures before I go to the hospital, and I'll also be working on catching up with y'all before I go also.
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
These stunning weeping willowtrees are at the bottom of a beautiful garden that runs down to the River Cam. Very lucky people living there! For msh - droopy

Alerce (larch) trees are the largest in South America, growing up to 4m in diametre and living for thousands of years. The trees are extremely slow growing and their wood is prized because it repels insects and when used as shingles lasts over 100 years (does not rot). Because of this, only a few isolated stands of Alerce still exist in three protected parks in Chile and Argentina. While this tree is protected in Parque Pumalin (bought by the CEO of The North Face to protect this area), local people have removed some of the bark for caulking their fishing boats. If too much bark is removed, the trees will die.
I never considered myself a tree hugger but I do love how a little seed can grow so large and tall. Their silhouettes cast a beautiful foreground in the night sky. Taken Saturday night near a town called Mangoplah.
