It Isn't Easy Being Green

The city can be tough on trees. This one casts a great shadow but the tree itself doesn't look so hot.
It's amazing how trees can grow around their own injuries, like sold liquid.
This one saddens me.

inspired by their defiance

sad in a way, but also very cool. the one where the chain fence has just been melted through is amazing...tree chi... this strikes me as less cruel than 'bred' trees where willow is introduced to make another kind oftree 'weep' - you can see struggle in those trees, whereas here it is more life despite, and a kind of acceptance.

Yes, and there is definitely some kind of message being transmitted about the symbiotic relationship between healing and going slow and time.

So I'm looking at all these trees and the 1st thing that comes to me is..."A tree grows in Broklyn..." so them I check where the px were taken at ans ...well.whadda ya know...I don't know I guess with the title in mid these pix could be represntational of many things.....(Brookly itself, the people, resiliency...)Something to ponder.....

definitely representational of brooklyn on so many levels... especially the shots from near the atlantic yards.
this is another one of those entries i seem to have missed the first time around- im glad i saw it now...
the bike-lock one is so strange...
Rural Cemetery Movements: How tragic. well done.

Fantastic photos! I've never seen anything similar! Sad but strangely uplifting - survival of the fittest, I guess.
