A feast for tired eyes!* Two day ago we featured a photo of Bill Valavanis' full moon maple. Yesterday Bill sent us this photo of the same tree. The other one was good, but the detail and over all quality is even better on this one

Off to see Hamilton in Boston tonight, so we’ll make this one short and sweet… just two photos. Both came via Bill Valavanis. Everything else I know is in the captions 

I found this famous little Crabapple on Bill's blog. It belongs to Harvey Carapella (remember him from last week?). Here's part of what Bill wrote about Harvey... "Harvey has combined his graphic art background with his natural artistic talent to grow, design and display fine quality bonsai. Many of his bonsai exceed the quality of those created by professional bonsai artists. One of his bonsai, a Crabapple, was the logo for the 2008 1stUS National Bonsai Exhibition. Several of his bonsai have been featured in International BONSAI both on the cover and in the Masterpiece Bonsai Gallery."

*The tired eyes are mine… too much going on and not enough sleep the last couple days
