I love to photograph trees and I am always looking for perfect ones to photograph. They can be so beautiful and I have photographed hundreds of trees because of their form, or their perfect shape. I was walking again this afternoon, always looking as is my way, when I saw this strange, kind of distorted tree silhouetted against the darkened sky. Its strange shape really captured my attention after I first saw it. It is not beautiful in the normal sense, but it has such a fascinating shape. It has clearly been trimmed at the top. It is located on a small patch of ground in an oil terminal where tanker trucks come to be filled. In a way, this tree is more interesting because it is imperfect. The thought I had was that the tree is imperfect, just as all of us are a bit imperfect, so I shouldn't ignore it because it is not perfect. How's that for a train of thought that you would never expect!
