Pine

In New Plymouth there is a large park area

in the central city. It is made up of two

parks that abut each other. One is called

Pukekura and the other is called Brooklands.

Brooklands is well known for being the

venue of WOMAD and many other events.

However, like Pukekura, it has a number

of very mature trees. This pine is an example.

Radiata I think, there are several of them

and I often try to photograph them because

they are some of the most impressive examples

that I have ever seen.

This image doesn't really give you an idea of the scale,

however, I will continue to work on them.
