Wow, that's quite the tree. Do you know how old it is?

Hi Annie - According to what I could find out, the tree is about 150 years old & is called a Morton Bay Fig Tree.
Here is another pic of it with my wife & MIL who didn't want their faces shown! - just so you can see how huge it actually is.

Beautiful tree Doug. I hope you won’t feel that I’m criticizing your work, but having people out in front of a big tree seems to make the tree look smaller than they really are. I always try to have any people in the shot half way back, or even with the middle, for scale.
If you go back, try this and compare them. Big trees are a real challenge.

Well done beautifully

Thanks. The 1600px version does it no justice...it's much better printed at 44x44 @ 1440dpi!

Hi Keith - thanks for your comments & advice. I shall remember your words the next time I'm shooting a big tree
Cheers,
