NaArMaMo Day 24

I missed yesterday, so here are two pictures to make up. Same tree, moments apart.

I like the subtle differences in light and shadow on the ivy.

Is this tree in your garden, too? I think you must have a gorgeous backyard, judging from all the photos you have posted lately.

Yes, these have all been shots from the garden. It was a wilderness until late 2005, and then our next-door neighbour (who is a gardener) started working on it for us. He's done an absolutely amazing job. Contrast this in winter 2005 (picture taken *after* he'd cut down five foot high of brambles!) with this (taken earlier this month).

That's an astounding transformation indeed!

That tree is beautiful; I love the markings on the bark. What sort is it?

That's our cherry tree.

Ah, the famous cherry pie tree!

Of renown!
