Special Thanks to:


The May Arboretum Staff and Volunteers for teaching and learning with me, and for making my photographs worth taking.

Lynda Nelson, Botanist, Arborist, Horticulturist, Teacher. For mentoring a student who knew nothing so patiently and for sharing her knowledge in a way to make it stick, even for a forgetful lad. For helping me achieve my goals when I took that extra mile, extra effort and extra time. For the kindness and generosity the whole way.

The green ones reaching to the sky and holding to the earth.
