Another of the shots that have been done over and over. Here is one of mine.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
When I saw the shape of this tree I just had to take a photo. It reminded me of the Tree of Life in the Kingdom. It inspired me to try my hand at Haiku, a form of Japanese Poetry, with lines of 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables again. Hope you enjoy
The phylogeny of the eubacteria as displayed by my Voronoi treemap. The treemap works best when trees are fairly flat and with many species in a group, so this area of the Tree of Life works very nicely.
A tree in its final phase of life at Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah, USA. The dry tree once full of life, now still stands tough and tall along the rim of Dead Horse Point, Utah, USA. Two young pines start to grow beside the old tree. Life goes on...
The Tree of Life or Sharajat-al-Hayat, as the Arabs call it, is 400 old mesquite tree which stands lonely in the heart of desert and from far away it looks like a green spot in the white desert. The mystery of the survival of the tree has made it a legend. The name “tree of life” is absolutely fit for the tree as it truly symbolizes the magic of life. A legend is also attached to the place where the tree is located. The local inhabitants believe with heart and soul that this was the actual location of the Garden of Eden.
This large tree, with its solid trunk, stout branches and luxuriant green leaves is a mystery to one and all, stands majestically on top of a 25-foot-high sandy hill. The tree has continued growing-despite the extremities of the climate. At present it is 32 feet in height.
It is fascinating to see something grow in such heavy conditions - loneliness, heat, drought, dust storms and grazing animals. The average temperatures are probably about 110 or so and the hot winds blow heavily.
The tree’s source of water is mystery. Biologists may say that its roots go very deep and wide to get water from the reserves of sweet springs kilometers away. The Bedouins believe that Enki, the mythical God of water, had showered its blessing and greenery on the Tree. According to one theory of some scientists who have studied the rings on the trunk of "Tree" (a tough, ancient acacia), they say it is over 1500 years old. Almost declaring it as the best preserved heritage of the 5000 years old land of "Dilmun" (meaning noble) which was ancient name of Bahrain.

"Tree of Life" - der Baum des Lebens
"Eine besondere naturnahe Form der Bestattung.
Wählen Sie ihren eigenen persönlichen Wunschbaum aus, welcher in einem Substratgemisch aus der Asche der/des Verstorbenen und spezieller Vitalerde zur Durchwurzelung gepflanzt wird.
Nach jeweiliger geographischer Herkunft stehen hierfür ausgewählte Sorten der Gattung – Ahorn, Birke, Douglasie und serbischer Fichte zur Verfügung. Andere Sorten auf Anfrage. Aufgrund noch immer geltender gesetzlicher Zwangsbestimmungen in Deutschland erfolgt die "Tree of Life" Baumaufzucht und Durchwurzelung in Spezialbaumschulen in der Schweiz, der Tschechischen Republik oder den Niederlanden.
Das Öffnen der Urne in den Spezialbaumschulen und das Herstellen des Substratgemisches, sowie die entsprechende Dokumentation erfolgt selbstverständlich unter notarieller Aufsicht und werden vor Ort vom anwesenden Notar für Ihre Unterlagen beurkundet.
Die Bäume benötigen zur vollständigen Durchwurzelung und Ascheaufnahme mindestens eine Zeit von 6 – 9 Monaten. Erst dann sind sie pflanzfähig. Sie erhalten daher Ihren "Tree of Life" Baum zur besten Pflanzzeit im folgenden Frühjahr oder Herbst.
Pflanzen Sie Ihren "Tree of Life" Baum am Lieblingsplatz der/des Verstorbenen, in speziell angelegten Ruhebiotopen oder in der freien Natur und schaffen sich damit Ihren eigenen ganz persönlichen Gedenkplatz." Zitat von:
Baobab trees planted in cool valley climate with high rain precipitation in Buitenzorg, Bogor botanical garden, Bogor City, West Java, Indonesia.

🍁 È un pomeriggio d'inizio autunno ed io osservo
come di consueto
la Bellezza della Vita intorno,
il torrente muschiato canta e
con lui in coro
i tuoi, i miei
passi che si ritrovano
in una nuova luce dorata,
vergine
e domando
perduri vera.

I think at one point on my visit to the Animal Kingdom, I managed to get every shot of each image projected on the Tree of Life. This Savannah image was one of my favorites.
This amazing artwork on a wall by an unknown graffiti artist who sketched out a perfect example of Biodiversity, with banyan tree popping out from the cracked wall & around that tree painted a mix of living organisms. One can also see the title as “Tree Of Life” written in regional language with ghost like creatures surrounding the artwork mentioning that what would happen to air, water, soil, etc, if we don’t respect The Mother Nature. I was lucky to capture this on a busy morning.
I was a bit annoyed to discover that this park, which was supposed to have opened to the public yesterday, was locked today when I visited.
I last gained entry to this park in April 2009 but I did manage to photograph some elements of it this January [2019] but it was effectively derelict then.
The ‘Tree of Life’ cast bronzes which were originally placed in the garden back in 1988 have been restored.
This public park on Nicholas Street was designed as a sunken garden so as reduce traffic noise at what is a very busy junction.
The park’s old main features include a bronze ‘Tree of Life’ statue, a fountain, and features biblical and quotes from Irish poets WB Yeats and Patrick Kavanagh have been retained but I could not confirm this to be true. A number of the elements from Dublin City Council’s 2017 Silver Gilt ‘Bloom’ garden including a fountain, granite paving and solid oak benches have been relocated here.
I did read in local newspapers that there is also an offer from the Government of Flanders to partner with Dublin City on a memorial to the 50,000 Irishmen who died in the Flanders fields but a number of councillors objected claiming that it would be inappropriate to have a war memorial in a ‘peace’ garden or park but my understanding is that the project went ahead.
