More kudos for seventh grade photographer, Alex Lein...
"I've known of Alex's passion for nature photography since he was in the fifth grade. When he heard that I was writing this book, he asked if he could submit a photo for it. I told him that I was writing about the 50 most commonly seen tree species in New York City and that I needed a photo of the goldenrain tree trunk. His submission is beautiful (above) and was accepted by the editor at Johns Hopkins University Press. Very exciting!" ~ Dr. Day
