Tree hugger at work...

This tree is a Bull Kauri - it is found only in a restricted area on The Atherton Tableland - about an hours drive west of Cairns. With a girth of 6 m and a height of 45m these are pretty impressive. The tree hugger shown here was a little restricted by the fence so this is a forced perspective image for the one-week-only activity.

It would take some work but you could totally clone out that fence! But he still looks like he's hugging it even with the fence in the way. Fun forced perspective shot!

[Jane Pittenger]

Awesome sense of size

I think the perspective work in his favour here :-) That is a BIG tree!
