Not only did you take a lovely picture of this tree and it's surroundings, but you also gave us links about the tree and the garden. Thanks.

The high key works beautifully here. Lovely shot of this very tranquil scene dominated by the Dawn redwood. (I have two of them growing out back in a lower field. I planted them as saplings maybe 12 years ago. They are now about 35 feet. At this latitude they may reach 90 feet.)

A tree with a unique character with the low branches and unusual trunk.
