Hi Bill,
Nice to hear from you again..... Thank YOU for the great comment . I appreciate it very much..... This is the most wonderful tree, and I do hope one day you can see one... Yep sitting under-neathe on a bench is the best place to be when the temperatures are in the 80's + ...It's always comfortable on one of those benches:))
Take Care,
Michele~

dHi Michele, This is certainly a most remarkable tree. I have never seen one but you did a wonderful job in portraying it . It makes me wish I were sitting under it in one of those benches. BILL NAGY

Thank YOU Onie for your interest-- I have been sort of surprised by the little that is known about these wonderful tree's here in the USA- and actually all over - excepting for India-- don't know if you read in my comments but Pradnya D-- if you are familiar with her (?) She says that married women actually take a special day of worship for this tree - for their husbands longevity (?) Well those weren't her exact words, but the jest of it ...
I have read a lot about these tree's but not that part and she is from India ....
Thank YOU Onie,
Michele~

Another of natures wonders Michele... :))) Like Annemette, first thing I thought of was, what a great tree to climb in and rest among the highway of branches... Truly amazing the birds and animals it must give refuge to, plus the human enjoyement also...:)))
I for one am going to look this up to read the story...:)))
Thanks Michele...:)))
Onie...

Hi Pradnya,
Thank You for your kind comment and your personal information-- soo many people have never seen these tree's before , and so this was of interest for them... I am sure they would also like to know about married women's tradition... wish I would've consulted YOU !!!!
Much appreciation my dear ....

Its really very huge..
These trees are common in India..atleast where I grew.. these trees give big shades..
Married women worship this tree on one special day...for their husband's long life..
Nice capture dear Michele..nice composition too!

Thank YOu for your comments Doyle and your interest ! I am not so sure exactly how this tree works...so I don't want to say the wrong thing... If you haven't found out the answer yet, I will be glad to look into it as well. If you want to read and see a simular image - look up Banyan Tree,Lahaina , Maui...it would explain better than me anyway ... it is a wonderful Tree :)
Best Regards,
Michele~

Hey, Michele!!! Some fancy work here with the wide depth of field and the branches popping out of the foreground at me. I really like the way you composed and presented this one.
--Best to you, Jan

gosh, these things are HUGE! I love the way it spreads out to create such a beautiful canopy.
You did a nice job with the capture, the people seated beneath it give it great scale.

Such a fine example of concentricity, Michele!
This tree really looks awesome and I´m so happy you took it from this angle making us see it much clearer. It must be great to climb in!
Best wishes

Ok, this is just too cool of a tree . . . My mind just went fish-eyed crazy wanting to get a shot of this!!!
So do I undestand correctly that the branch touches down . . . sends new roots out . . . and the one tree has, essentially, many trunks??? Or do the roots just sprout more and more trunks.... How unique . . .
Regards -
Doyle I
