I came across this one at Tidbinbilla close to the NASA/CSIRO Space station at Canberra! I just had to stop and shoot it! If only the tree could talk!

I bet it would go on forever. Its magnificent. Love the contrast against the blue sky. #1712024Emile Abbott July 24, 2018
Agree with Candace great against the blue sky. Tree looks lonely but probably has great tales to tell. Thanks for stopping and capturing this image, John. #11715999Chuck Green July 24, 2018
Great find and capture, John! I remember a song about a kookaburra sittin' in an old gum tree. Could this be the one? (Did you hear a kookaburra laughing?) <>< #11716035John Connolly July 24, 2018
