Near Tomingely, NSW, Australia, September 2015. Off the road to Goobang National Park. A farmers field with cows and a single tree, dusk settling.

on the Hohe Straße (high road), a historical trade road between Maintal-Bischofsheim and Niederdorfelden). The so-called „Hohe Straße“ (High road) is a part of the historic road „Via Regia“.
The Via Regia ran west-east through the centre of the Holy Roman Empire, from the Rhine at Mainz to Frankfurt, continuing along Hanau, Eisenach, Erfurt to Leipzig.
The Humble Administrator's Garden has an entire section full of bonsai trees.
The Humble Administrator's Garden is one of the prized gardens in Suzhou (it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and was originally completed in 1526 and took 16 years to build. In ancient times, prominent Chinese men would retire and build huge gardens as a symbol of their wealth and taste. This garden was originally commissioned by Wang Xiancheng and was designed by Wen Zhengming.
Iconic tree found all over Martha's Vineyard, here overlooking the waters off Menemsha.
Way back when, "The Vineyard" was a popular summer retreat for people in Boston and a few from NYC: even my friends in Connecticut (the neighboring state, two hours by car) hadn't heard of it. That all changed in the early 1990's when then-President Clinton went to visit. Since then everyone has heard of it and now you have to make ferry reservations months in advance (we used to just drive down and drive on!). Now license plates from New Mexico and Canada are not uncommon, and the island has slowly been made "cute." However, the same slow pace reigns: there are still no traffic lights on the island, and there is very little to do aside from going to the beach and shopping for odds and ends. A nice break from frantic urban lifestyles...!
The wonderful avenue of trees across Durdham Down, unusual because it features many different kinds of tree and yesterday they were in various stages of spring growth.

SOOC. I discovered this tree over the summer and my first thought was...
"The Whomping Willow exists!"
Except this one doesn't move :P
Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.

I went for a quick dog walk early on Sunday morning around Biddulph Grange with Darcy. I grabbed my camera but left my wide angle lens and tripod at home. But as I walked up a path called the Himalayan Walk up the stream there were little splashes of sunlight landing on the ground and the water. This one caught my eye...a patch of light on a tree trunk. Amongst the darkness it shone out as a beacon for all that is so wonderful in the world. Just to see it was so uplifting, and with the spring morning birdsong I could have believed I was in the Garden of Eden.
