Do you have Maple trees?

We certainly have maples in the UK, often quite huge trees. I have Japanese maples around my garden pond (also in the acer family), these being a favorite combination of mine with deciduous azaleas.

No, but I expect you get a free Geisha girl with every three Japanese maples that face north. Hmmmm, that gives me an idea - I wonder what bonsai trees with autumn leaves look like? Pretty as a picture maybe?

It seems my photographic accessory shopping isn't done yet. I've just bought a rucksack with compartments designed for a camera and lenses etc. It only has one strap so you can swing it under your armpit and get your camera out without taking the rucksack off. It holds a camera plus up to 4 lenses plus extras and is really neat. A bigger version is available, but I didn't want the temptation to carry my sandwiches and shopping in it to.

My new monopod arrived today. It's just great. Can also be used as a walking stick and stands up all by itself on it's one leg.

The 3 rods are stored inside the monopod and are accessed by unscrewing the 'foot'. The monopod will take 15Kg in weight - it's quite heavy and weighs 1.26Kg and is nice and sturdy. It can also double as a walking stick, and even treble as a javelin if I really wanted to enter the next Olympics.
