Ake Ake Tree

I have been going through my files to look for possible B&W contenders for Camera Club next month .. I came across this one .. like the colour too much so will not be converting this one but just had to use it for something..
This was taken when @dide and I had our trip to The Chatham Island's late last year .. Thes Ake Ake tree's are all over the Island and as it is very exposed they look very 'tortured' .. this one split but still very much alive .. There is alot of those 'cone' shape hills all over the Island ..

Fabulous landscape! Love the composition!

Split down the middle, yet very determined. I wonder if it was originally hit by lightning.

How amazing the tree is alive! It is the perfect frame for that “volcano” in the distance.
