Crystal in SF has been documenting lonely trees around the world. She writes: ” I feel so sad for them sometimes. because even when there’s another tree close by….they are like, weighed down with concrete…or, they are surrounded by sidewalk….so while we arent even looking, they cant even walk over and brush against another tree.
regarding the lonely tree in front of calumet, SF, when I said it’s no longer there, I meant the text that someone wrote……the bush/tree is still there.
once, I saw “so lonely” on the back of a truck….written like the one on the wall…….but I didnt have my camera with me….”
Here are some images she wanted to share with us. Do you have any to share with her? Maybe they wont be so lonely?

This from Carrie in New Orleans:
“Hi… I saw your coasters in a bar in New Orleans called Sugar Park and I loved them…. When I checked out the website it reminded me of some pictures I had taken a few months back of signs in NOLA I loved. I hope you can use them. Thanks!”

This just taken in Dolphins Barn Flats, where many of the windows of abandoned apartments have been boarded up with ugly ply-wood. This is was a lovely beautification initiative to stumble upon.

Walk to the Luas

Not sure if this was a purposefully moment of design, or lazy accident- either way its uniqueness garnishes is a Yesthing award. Wereburg Street, Dublin…. right down the street from that fancy design place, Image Wow-
