The Hedge

Posted this shot in colour to enable the viewer to compare with my B&W shot in the 365 album. This hedge would really cut out the road noise as well as being a little haven inside of it!

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Simply Amanda]

Quite cool!

[Rosie Kerr]

It is just like a wall! Do they trim this thing with nail scissors? ;) Fabulous gardening.

[Harry J Benson]

In the colour version it looks more like a wall then a hedge, nicely presented

[Maggiemae]

@rosiekerr Probably with a razor, Rosie!

[Julie Duncan]

That's amazing!

[gayelene]

What a beautiful hedge and nice shot :)

[tony gig]

Very nice hedge, and lovely shot Maggie.

[Pam Knowler]

They have made this hedge a work of art! Great shot!

[Debs Stott]

Just love that little gate in the hedge!

[belinda]

Thank you :)

[Maggiemae]

@adayinmallacoota Its so nice of you to say, thank you Belinda! Means you really wanted to know!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Wonderful privacy from view , noise and the elements --

[Maggiemae]

@beryl Yes, exactly! I think the owners of this property have their priorities right!

[ShirleyB]

Well spotted. They have put a lot of thought and work into making this hedge something pleasant to look at.

[Howard Steele]

what an absolutely perfect hedge ,that must take hours to maintain...great shot

[Maggiemae]

@steeler Thanks Howard - I wish I could tell them how much we appreciate all their hard work!

[Zdenka]

Interesting hedge would :)

[richard saffold]

just think of all the creatures living in this hedge.

[David Lee]

amazing peice of work

[gloria jones]

Great capture

[Francoise]

Want to grow one around ouur property. It's a daunting (and dauntingly long) proposition.

[Bep]

Privacy guaranteed!

[Lee]

That is an impressive hedge, great shot of it too.

[Pat Knowles]

I have never ever seen a more wonderful & impressive hedge than this one! The work & commitment to keep that looking like that must be incredible! What type of hedge is it maggiemae, do you know?

[Molly]

It's a very neatly trimmed hedge, and I like the hole for the gate.

[katy]

Even in color it looks like a solid structure instead of a growiing thing! thanks for taking the time to post this shot of it too, Maggiemae!

[Maggiemae]

@francoise I would say years too, Francoise but in five you would be able to trim it!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat Its a macrocapa one I think and one that has been shaped constantly to have such fine leaves on the outside! Lots of people have thick hedges here - we had one growing up and used to play houses in it - didn't look like this one, though!

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn It would be a real asset in this property if they ever sell it but you never know - some weird person might not like it and pull it all out!

[Maggiemae]

@chard That sounds like the beginning of a great story, Richard!

[katy]

@maggiemae You are so right and that would be such a shame!

[Leslie]

my goodness it looks like a wall . That's one great landscaper

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It's so different looking in color- much more hedge-like here. Someone really cares about their garden!

[Rick Schies]

Wow, that is nice and smooth, very nicely manicured

[Tony]

Beautiful hedge.

[Nick]

Love the little gateway.
