This is a wonderful gallery and features the images from Andy Alexis-Baker our guest speaker on the evening.
Clearly, we love a leafless monochrome tree as well as revelling in the gnarly details of these wonderful and essential organisms. The gallery features a super selection of our woody friends from near and far from stunted wind twisted trees in the Wolds to the mighty baobabs of sunnier climes as well as salutes to the dead skeletons of the fallen and new hope arising.
