OT..Acorn to Oak images
Im sorry for going off topic but this is one Im sure you'll be able to help me with. My daughter is about to graduate (we do it here at 13) from primary to 2nd level and has been given the job of designing the cover of their graduation book. She has decided (obviously with all the talk of gardening in this house) to do 8 stages of growth to represent the eight years they have spent in primary school. She's going with from Acorn to Oak and has asked me to look for and download pics of oaks in 8 stages from acorn to half (because they are only half) mature tree. Well I've been googling, alta vistaing, lycosing etc all night and am starting to go round in circles. I've got acorns a plenty and mature trees aplenty but I can't seem to find anything in between. Anyone know of any sites that will show this tree in various stages of growth?... Thanks again -- Shan (Ireland) http://ukdiscus.com/main.htm |

I can snap some pictures of that if it's any help, and given the number of oaks around the estate (modern estate on a 'brownfield' site, but rather tastefully they kept many of the old boundaries), I might be able to find a few more of different sizes. Mail me on martin(at)barfoo(dot)com with a shopping list! Martin |
