The Old Tree at Dusk


I parked my car at the Vanderbilt Museum and as I was taking my computer and other things out of the trunk for the meeting, I happened to look over to my right and saw this tree off to the right.  My sense is that the tree is really old, based on its shape and the condition of its branches.  I have no idea what kind of tree this is  - maybe in daylight when it is leafed out I might hazard a guess.  What made the photograph as well are the high overcast clouds that silhouette the tree. Against a plain sky I am thinking that the photograph would not be as strong. Please click on this to see more detail.

I like the photo's lighting, and I also like the photo because there is so much detail. The variety of trees and sky stand out, and I like the view of the harbor in the background as well as the black fence and the pretty white building. It all looks very nice together and makes for an interesting photo. Trace

There are so many different trees and this huge old baron tree stands alone front and center. Interesting photo.

Thank you both for your appreciation of my photograph of that great tree.
