Placed 61^st in the challenge. We've all got a favorite tree, we'd return to year after year. Think of often for it's fond childhood memories. As a kid ''we'' had a favorite mulberry tree we'd visit every year as a family. In Gyeongju Korea I adore this big ol' tree which grows onone of the royal tombs. Season by season year by year I'll return to this place to photograph it.....So the leaves of summer turn to the empty branches of winter.
