Description
... and that has nothing to do with Cricket !
This Moreton Bay Fig tree could be at least 100 years old - which coincides with this particular post, which also happens to be #100 for me... WOOHOO !
Three years ago I planted my roots here at Renderosity, just like this tree, pretty firmly by now!
I have met an amazing lot of photographers and artists - beginners, amateurs and some even on a semi and/or professional level ...
I have never stopped learning, looking at the world in a different way now and every day is lost in which I do not learn something useful.
Big thanks to everyone ...
Cheers *BB*

Congratulations on your 100th posting and the cricket team could probably do with your century at the moment. You have a very beautiful gallery with really interesting work and I thank you for sharing. I love the Moreton Bay figs they really make a statement.

Excellent photo and congrats on the 100th offering to Renderosity. This particular tree appears symbolic of your photographic achievement; it branches upward and outward in proud display of the fruits nurtured from its deep roots embedded in this community. Well done BB!

Congrats on 100! I agree with your observations about Renderosity wholeheartedly. Love the old tree...only 100 years old? Maybe more.

i picked this because it was your 100th, and because it's a big spectacular catch of a tree. It's a little silly to say "congratulations" when this went up in 2011. (Are ya late much, Mark?) But congratulations anyway. You've built a terrific gallery. As for the shot, you got it smack-dab-in-the-middle, a tree that explodes outwards for us, and just tangles out into the air like streamers. And you have a bluish tine to it, which makes it catch our attention. And the ground ends where the tree starts to branch out. Solid composition. A powerful capture of a great tree, you got its whole "blast into space" feeling. And you toned it down with that introspective blue. Kind of fitting for a 100th anniversary---excitement and reflection. Love what you did with this.
