Images of the Arty Kind (2013-14)
« on: September 01, 2013, 02:29:51 AM »
I came back to look at the "Images of the Arty Kind" thread, but couldn't find anything since 2012.  So I'm going to try to start a new thread. (My first time doing so ... hope it works.)
For those who want to see what was posted previously, the previous threads on this topic are at:

http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=7782
http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=8529

I'll start us off with a photo of a tree on the UCDavis campus in winter.  Anyone know what it is?

Hi Lois, great to see you again!  I have a feeling someone has shown us a great tree like that beofre ( though not artistically perhaps!!)  but I cannot  place it  -  we need a clever tree bod to guess your puzzle  ;)

Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.

I suspect Lois knows what the tree is - she's just testing us!

Lois, is it possibly a London plane tree Platanus x acerifolia or some form of Acer.

I'm told it is a Chinese Elm. 
I have it posted somewhere with the caption: "Sunscreen?  ME!!??   Oh, no, I never need any ...."

Hope you are all doing well.
