Tree Picture Number Eight

It was grey and damp on Friday when I drove into Dereham for my Volunteering session at the Hospital. But I stopped to take a picture of the tree. The crop has been harvested, so you can see the base of the trunk, and the bare area around it. But the foliage remains lush dark green. I've arranged the 8 pictures anticlockwise, starting at the top left with January so you can see how the leaves have developed.

Four months bare branches, four in leaf. I am loving this project!

  1. Arranging the photographs like that is such a great idea. I'm a bit late with my-end-of-July picture...

  3. I'm thinking I may do a tree project next year. Not monthly but when I go dog sitting.

  6. Great photo. I love trees and you have picked a good one and in a great position. All your photos would make a lovely calendar. Regards Sue H

  7. What a fabulous collage of the tree throughout the months-it would make a fab poster once you have all 13 photos. Sorry for lack of comments-we were away for a few days and my phone won’t comment. Catriona

  8. It's such a good project to follow the tree through the seasons. I actually noticed a few trees with their leaves already turning yellow and brown on our travels down the motorway yesterday. I think nature, and your tree, will be sliding into Autumn very soon.

  9. Angela, first of all, congratulations on 7 million views. That is amazing! Secondly, I love your tree project. Dan keeps trying to get me to do something like that with the scenery around where we live. That tree is lovely!

  10. One of the reasons that tree is so magnificent is that it has no other trees next to it to compete with for nutrition, water and light!

    1. Find a tree which is on its own, it makes it easier to track it's progress
