Awesome repetition going on here!!!

@Craig: Thanks! it helps that the trees had been planted and lined up in perfect little rows.
These trees look like some aliens from outer space.

What wonderful architectural tree's, I love the low angle of this shot.

Very nice highlights there, and love those trees!

Nice shot! Interesting trees, they look like some form of cactus.

@Stunner: Thanks. I think they're called Joshua Trees.
very beautiful image and trees - I see them for first time

Very unusual trees.

Those trees are very interesting and from this angle they look intimidating which is perhaps why the bench is vacant? I'd be afraid the trees would attack! Just kidding of course.

Very nice capture of these odd trees. I like the low angle!

Nice capture!

Those close-cropped trees look almost threatening . . anyone sitting there should glance over their shoulder from time to time!

@Ronnie 2¢: that seems to be a common reaction to this shot. i guess i thought they looked really weird the first time i saw them too, but the place is really a very peaceful place to sit, when it's not a tourist attraction.
Very nice shot ... great angle. You live in an exotic land with odd, but beautiful, trees...

Beautiful image with very interesting trees.

@Frank: thanks so much!
Such a unique angle for this wonderful bench. Those trees are most unusual. Lovely composition.

Reminds me of the "platanes" that give shade to the little town squares at the "Côte d'Azur" in France. That's where the oldtimers play their bocce balls...

So strange trees... bizarre bizarre... Interesting composition
26 Mar 2008 5:30pm
Love this, danthro! The perspective/angle is fantastic...love the light...wonderful composition! Brilliant job!

Nicely framed. The trees are so interesting against the blue sky. I like the straight lines in the bench.
26 Mar 2008 9:16pm
wow! this is a strange, yet really nice image.
26 Mar 2008 11:13pm
Ah, I should've seen this longer exposure shot first. I am a landscape architect so I kind of enjoy identify the type of tree from their silouette. They really add characteristic to a neighborhood!
