Plane trees




















I can't believe I live in a country that has plane trees! This one is in Veyrier. I've found it surprisingly difficult to take a good photo of them as they nearly always have cables running through them. Just to the right of this shot is the local bakery. It's very attractive and has lots of yummy cakes and pastries in the window. The trouble is, it's so popular that there is always a car parked outside ruining the shot and if I go when it's closed, the cakes have been sold!

I'd never heard of a plane tree. It's very funky-looking!

I love these pollarded trees in continental Europe.

I love it. So Knarly & surreal. Looks like something out of Lord of the Rings!
