This one tree stretches for ten sections of the fencing. I'm not sure if the sections are eight or ten feet each, but either way, this tree sure has a very broad canopy!
Cananga odorata, known as the cananga tree (Indonesian: kenanga, Balinese: sandat, Acehnese: seulanga), is a tropical tree that originates in the Indonesia, Malaysia, and Philippines.[1] It is valued for the perfume extracted from its flowers, called ylang-ylang.
I was informed by a guide that the flowers are also used for making a rather well known French perfume.
My corner of the family Christmas tree. Beatrix Potter's Tom Kitten, Batman, and my favoritest ornament ever, the fairy with the poofy hair. She doesn't hang from the tree; she's got wire bendy limbs and just sites on a branch. She makes me happy.
She's falling apart, and I'm desperately looking to find a replacement for her.

On the east side of Glacier by the Blackfeet Indian Reservation there is a huge grove of windswept trees like the ones pictured. After a short hike, you will run into tree after tree, each gnarlier than the last. It was quite the experience. The grove is located on a little plateau overlooking some of Glacier's mountains and you can feel the wind up there that shaped these trees. I visited twice, the second time I wanted to shoot the full moon and was there around 4-5am. Winds were howling and a cold front had came through that night leaving temps in the 20s. I had two down jackets on and probably looked like I was about to climb Everest. The wind is relentless though even on a calm day. This shot was from my first hike up to the trees and it was 'calm', AKA 30mph winds. This was the morning after the lenticular and the light was off the hook again. Actually got lucky, if the sun would have rose about an hour later, sunrise would have just been bland and gray with overcast skies. This was no doubt, one of the best sunrises I have ever seen. Yet, it was the quickest as well. There was some beautiful pre-dawn light, but the real show was when the sky lit up like you see here. 30 seconds later is was gone and there was snow in the air.
HBW! Well these are the blossoms that come before the berries on this tree. I have no idea what kind of tree it is, and nobody I've asked did either.
It was rainy and overcast when I took this, so the lights not the best
A joshua tree at sunset, on the way from Beatty, Nevada towards Las Vegas.
During the 30 second exposure I illuminated the tree using a spotlight from both sides.
