Tree Labels
I photographed the trees in this series multiple times over a three year period to get them right. When I was a boy, my mother started a tree nursery with the intention of establishing a college fund for her children, years later selling mature trees to landscapers for replanting. The trees in these images are on the grounds of the care facility where my mother spent her final days, the facility having bought trees from her decades prior to her living there.
These 6 images were made over a three year period to get them right. The trees are on the campus where my Mother spent her last days before she died. She raised trees and sold them to landscapers and built our college funds. This place bought trees from her decades prior to her living there.
