We took a day to go to Portland Maine, and I walked around taking photos of trees in the City. Trees enhance the beauty of a city, and Portland, Maine is a beautiful city. I highly recommend it if you are in the area. The people are very friendly, and the food is fantastic.
I don't think this tree was planned, but I like how it has fit into the edge of this building, and grows out over the walkway. The green against the red of the building is a nice contrast of colors.
This is the Unitarian Church in Portland, Maine. It's a beautiful church, and has gardens that are open on both sides. It's a great quiet place in the middle of the city. I think it's a great gift that the church gives to the community.
I don't remember where this tree was located, but I enjoyed the spring time blossoms. I especially liked the blossoms all over the sidewalk.
The Portland Museum of Art has an incredible beach tree. This is a tree that you have to see to appreciate. It's huge, and tough to capture in a single photo.
All in all it was a great day.
heya steveo, i like the last one - the beach tree. grand thing it is. i grew up in a nice suburb of nyc and the thing that made the neighborhood beautiful and comforting was the arched canopy of trees covering the houses and esp the streets. i never realized it until i visited a newly built development somewhere out on long island and the trees were small and the sky empty. my request, if ur still taking them would be to find such a canopy on some street with handsome, mature trees
