Actually, there are signs posted throughout the display area about not taking any pictures. Cameras are to be left in your car.

Bummer! Wish I could go!!! Good luck again to all the nutters with entries.

 

[coh]

Yeah, no pics. Check Bill's blog, he may post some photos today or over the weekend. And if you're on facebook, people often post pics of their own trees once they're set up (that is allowed).

I'll see if I can get some overall photos of the exhibition (photos of the set up, groups of trees, etc) but won't be able to do individual tree portraits.

Thats a bit silly.

Thats a bit silly.

Not really. Bill has each tree and display professionally photographed and creates a book with the photos for each exhibition. Ultimately, it's his baby, so his rules. I don't have a problem with it.

Buying the photobook is a great way to support the exhibition and Bill’s efforts to put it on every two years. Besides, the photos will be far better than your cell phone pics.

What time do doors open?

 

[Gary McCarthy]

And that photobook is FREAKING AWESOME!!!

Opening ceremony Saturday is 8:30 AM. Doors open at 9 AM.

The book is fantastic. I have a copy of all five. Six after this year.

Can't wait to see it in person!

 

[GGB]

I'm leaving in 10 minutes, it's a 5 hour drive from here. If you see a guy with green hair on Sunnday say hi. It's me (Gavin) or GGB works
