The Giving Tree

Photographer's Statement:

I think that this tree really helps me know that I will grow as a tree (full-grown and healthy) because if we didn’t have trees, especially this one, we wouldn’t be here and grow. The tree also gives shade and comfort to those who need it.  Just like this tree, I can help others feel better with friendship and love.
