Description I love overcast days. It's the easiest way to get even lighting and great saturation like this.

This miniature Japanese Maple stands just about 2 feet tall, yet is every bit as impressive as a full-sized specimen.

This is still, to this day, one of my favourites of yours.. I have a print of it a friend bought me, though I haven't gotten around to getting it framed, I will very soon!

Elly - it's still one of my favorites too, although I do think, from time to time, about reprocessing it. I trust all is well with you?

I still haven't managed to find a frame to fit my print of this!

All is good, looking for a new job after a year of school, job searching sucks!! Yourself?

It is just a strain of the Japanese Maple. Some are red year round, some are not.

Love it! I just moved into my first house and it has a large japanese maple growing in the courtyard. I've always loved them and am so happy that I have one in my own yard. I'm going to use this as my wallpaper and hopefully buy a print of it soon. Thanks for this!

billsabub In reply to Niaries [2007-09-20 23:51:38 +0000 UTC]



Thank you so much.

My wife knows how much I love them, so she bought one for the house this year. Since we move every few years, she's gone the potted route, which makes it really nice.
