Three times a year in my wee town of Uguisuzawa there are bonsai exhibitions hosting local trees. With so many old people living in Japan I guess it makes a popular hobby. I had always thought bonsai to be cool and even received one as a Christmas present from our Dave a couple of years ago. But last spring, when I saw the bonsai trees in full bloom, I was blown away. I had never imagined bonsai trees with flowers, let alone berries. And now it's autumn so theres even trees growing (rather small) fruit. Here's a few snaps I took on Sunday.
Leaning bonsai.
This baby is only ten years old.
A Japanese Maple in full autumn colours.
Standing next to my favourite. It's over 120 years old.
They come in all shapes and shades. 
More autumn colours.
