Just found this website which has great photos and details about lots of different species and cultivars of the Acer genus. I could spend hours on this site. I recommend going to the "more Maples" section and the "Maples on the move" section. I haven't even skimmed the rest yet

I think i can handle that “Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless - like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be like water, my friend.”
