trees


trees, originally uploaded by Lester Ralph Blair.

When flying over a small city (I remember having flown over New Plymouth in a small plane) it is a contrast of the greenery of trees and green belts to the barren farm land surrounding the town. Cities have hectares of parks, shaded walks along meandering streams. Even the busy central streets are lined with trees. This photo is Manners street, Wellington, and the trees are birches from Europe, which grow very fast here in New Zealand with our strong sunlight.
