This tree & the entire garden is scheduled to be destroyed by the NYU/NYC 2031 Expansion Plan to build two massive skyscrapers at this location here in the heart of historic Greenwich Village. Click https://pbase.com/hjsteed/wsv_gardens for more photos & information about this destructive plan.

For the past few years,under different weather and lighting conditions, I've taken photos of this Willow Tree in NYU's residential Washington Square Village Garden. I find it a challenging study, lending opportunities for creative paths in photographic and metaphysical thoughts and expressions. This collection of photos represents some highlights of our willow tree's changing colors and forms throughout it's mature growth cycle. I hope the viewers will spend some time contemplating their inner thought processes while viewing these photos. I find such exercises open up new dimensions in understanding feelings from visual imagery.
