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.
Although "tree" is a term of common parlance, there is no universally recognised precise definition of what a tree is, neither botanically nor in common language
Todays photo was a funny one because i want to keep the very day post going so i went out with my camera around my village and walked miles but came home with no good photos then went in the garden for about 3 mins and got this shot. so i feel i wasted a couple of hours of my sunday. Hope you like it.

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.
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...!

Sunrise near the north entrance to the park, a transitional zone between the Mojave Desert (the Joshua Tree is the signature plant) and the Sonora Desert (note the small cholla cactus with its glowing spines close to the Joshua Tree).
Thank you all for your comments and faves!

The other evening we went for a short visit to Elk Island NP. It is too bad that night falls so early this time of year, because we lose light so fast. There is, simply, not enough time to capture the fall colors during a working week. By the time we get anywhere we have 30 min of light left. And, since foliage does not stay on the trees for too long around here we try to get out every chance we get. Here is a few shots of trees I took during that outing. It is so cool being surrounded by them during blue hour right now, because all that yellow just glows.
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.
