Sometimes you wonder how trees survive.

Bob - I very much like the image quality that you have achieved here, which film / camera combination are you using. My preference is very much B&W but am seriously considering trying out some colour perhaps in a 6 x 9 folder.

First one is with a Yashica YF, second is with a point and shoot digital (didn't have the Yashica unpacked and running for that trip). Still haven't figured out what exactly was holding that tree up...

King Billy Pine (Athrotaxis selaginoides) | Pelion Gap, Tasmania

KBP's are one of Tasmania's endemic conifers and can live up to 1500 years in perfect conditions (importantly they need to be protected from fire). This particular example would be approx. ~1100 years old and is in very healthy condition.
