Ok, deciduous trees have their place. They suck when they drop leaves and as a gardener, I have spent way too many hours tidying up after the dratted things. They do, however, allow in winter sun and block out the harsh summer sun. As a gardener, I may hate some plants for various reasons, but I have discovered that no matter how much I may dislike something, it still has a use and a place in a garden. Liquid Amber's are like this. I detest cleaning up after them. I love the deep green foliage they provide in summer and the delicious shade they provide when its too hot. I love the winter sunlight filtering through their naked branches and I love watching the leaves change and add colour to the park. Even though this is one of the first photos I took when I began work in the parks, its a little out of focus and its not quite as perfect as it should be, this would have to be one of my personal favourite photos.
