Photo Hunt-Aftermath

Since ‘aftermath’ means-results, this is what I stopped on when I was going through my recent photos. Now Bonsai is definitely an art form and is achieved from the results of careful and tedious trimming and training of a variety of trees and bushes. I would say these are a white birch maybe? I didn’t get the name. These were under two feet tall. They don’t have their leaves as it’s the wintertime. I saw a photo on the web of it in full green tiny leaf that I can’t seem to share here. There were other fine examples of Bonsai here at Longwood Gardens. These are usually decades old.

  6. I’ve always been fascinated with Bonsai trees and love the way some people trim them. A few years ago Corey had gotten me a live Bonsai tree to take care of and I’m afraid it died on me after a couple of months. Sigh. Guess I have to learn how to take care of them! lol xoxo

  8. Great take on the theme. I like that it is a successful ‘aftermath’. We love Bonsai but they are so much work. It takes a lot of patience and work. But they are beautiful.
