Arbography: Pictures

Pictures

As time goes on I hope to add more and more pictures of everything I do (well it is arbography isn't it!!) at the moment i'm using my faithful ole camera phone which gets OK pics. I have however just invested in a beginners DSLR so i'm hoping my pictures improve vastly over time.

I suppose I should start by showin the very first tree I climbed as a qualified arborist. It's probably best easiest to start fresh with the photos as my back catalogue is huge. I may post from it once in a while but I want to look forward.

This tree is the ladder oak at Myerscough College (a term coined by the staff there as it literally is like a ladder to climb). A really good climb for people with all skills and a good view from the top. Its been a while since I did this but remember it well.

Ride to the Ballabu Fundraiser

What is "The Ride to the Ballabu" I here you ask? Well, I aim to raise money for The Ballabu Conservation Project incorporating the Makasutu Wildlife Trust by cycling the equivalent distance from my house to the Ballabu of which I will be visiting in May/June 2013. I shall be doing this by way of an exercise bike and my own bicycle, distances will be recorded per day and an overall tally of distance traveled will be kept and updated for you to follow. In total a distance of 6,293km will be "pedaled" from now till 15th May 2013 which works out at 30.4km everyday, Some days I'll get the chance to do more and some less so, but all 6,293km will be covered by my own leg power. So please sponsor me with as much or as little as you can.

Below you will find a Donation button, this is processed through paypal and all funds recieved (bar the inevitable paypal fees at 3.4%+0.20p) will be collected and be given to the Makasutu wildlife trust and Ballabu Conservation Project.

This money will help the people of the Ballabu in The Gambia to continue to support their local schools, funding local health clinics, funding tree planting schemes, paying wages for important roles within the community, buying needed wheelchairs and equipment for Eden's Garden for Life Project.
