wardrobe change

winter conditions necessitate a change of wardrobe...during this dormant season the Paperbark Maple sheds its bark in thin wispy sheets, revealing a fresh layer underneath

this is a lone planting in Jericho Beach Park....the species is actually native to China

Nikon D90
Nikkor 16-85mm - 1/500s f/11.0 at 62.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

A fine photo in interesting light. I'm very interested in this phenomenon of bark shedding.

A great focus on this bark showing delicate little rolls and subtle soft pink tones.

The last colors of autumn enlightened by the sun! Interesting peelings of the outer parts of the bark. V

Interesting how it looks a bit like a birch - very pretty matching the fall leaves. V

So delicate looking. Shows up beautifully with all the other colors in the sunlight.

It's always interesting to see the paper birches change like this too.
