The icon at Disney's Animal Kingdom located in Orlando Florida.
The tree is modeled after a bonsai tree and is 145 feet tall, and at the base it is 50 feet wide. There are over 8,000 branches in various sizes, and over 102,000 man-made leaves. Each leaf is over a foot long.

Tree tunnel at Edisto Island, SC. You will definitely see it when you drive to Botany Bay Plantation. It is about 1 mi from the gate entrance.
The paths where paved in gold, and at the end, the sky was golden

these tree roots were about the only interesting things I saw whilst walking up the east side of Derwent Dam. It was muddy and flat along the track and bespoiled by construction work and road warning signs everywhere. They are apparently installing a water turbine to power the dam (eh?) and replace the diesel engine that currently does it, for health and safety reasons.
So let me get this straight. The diesel engine has worked for donkeys years and I've not heard of anyone dying from carbon monoxide poisoning at the site, yet they are entirely happy to spend thousands of man hours creating the building and site using dirty diesel powered excavators and machinery and churn up the local environment?
Sometimes I think our country would be better run by communists.
Believe it or not, this is one of my favourite spots/views, between the park and the bypass near where I live. Taken early on a foggy morning.
A quiet Sunday morning at Larkrigg (bridge 180) near Kendal on the dry northern reaches of the Lancaster canal. I was there for about an hour before the tow-boat circus turned up. I was a bit worried at one point, if someone was to asked me what I was waiting for, my reply of "a boat" might have caused some concern. I did think that if I added that Captain Jack Sparrow will be in command, the police would soon arrive! The larch trees on the left were planted by the canal company, very forward thinking of them, as their boats used Larch.

Another trip out with the camera club, this time to Colliford Lake to visit the petrified trees. The water level is definitely starting to struggle with the lack of rain as half of these trees were not even visible last time I was here, but this did give me the opportunity to get a bit closer to them than is normally possible. Wellies might not be a great fashion statement but the do come in useful!
2 large cypress trees, growing out of a pond, at the Jesse H. Jones Park and Nature, near Humble Texas. The photo was taken in October of 2018. Photo was made using a Canon EOS 80D with a EF-S 18-135mm USM lens, with a little bit of post-processing.
mind your head ;-)

and a little work with levels & curves.
The trees along the Mississippi have a rough life. They can be submerged for weeks during flood season. Crushing winter ice jams can strip a tree bare. As the river recedes in dry times, it takes the soil with it, exposing the roots. Wind storms and age finally snapped the tops off the trees. But new branches emerge from the remaining trunk and the process begins anew.
