Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Trees


As Lovely As A Tree

I think that I shall never see  
A poem lovely as a tree.  

Trees by Joyce Kilmer

I haven’t managed to join in any of Cee’s Challenges for a couple of weeks. I never seem to be ready with a post in time but this week I am determined even if it has to be photos from the archives like this one of my beloved apple tree.

The apple tree October 2018
  • Oak Trees on the Parliament House lawns.
  • Oak trees growing on the Parliament Lawns, Hobart
  • An autumn evening – Murray Street, Hobart.
  • Seen through the bus window.
  • Autumn colours in New Norfolk
  • I took this in a park in New Norfolk
  • Poplar trees near my house.

Taswegian1957

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008. We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company. I currently co-write two Wordpress blogs with my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.
