Yucca Tree
This tree stands in our front yard. I placed the camera inside the tree and pointed it up.

Taken for the PBase Challenge: "May through a wide lens."

Nicely backlit. These are rather amazing plants. They grow on the Nevada Test Site seeming quite unaffected by the A Bomb tests and I've seen a smaller version growing on the Loess Hills of Western Iowa.

Very nice 'fish eye' gallery. Nice shot.

Fantastic pov and effect.

Great perspective. I wish these grew in our climate zone. I have Spanish Bayonet Yuccas. They grow much closer to the ground and are deadly sharp. These, at least, are out of harms' way.

Funny looking trees, how tall are they?

Great shot with that beautiful blue sky. I love that backlighting effect on the topmost tree...excellent shot, Walter.

Good POV and I like the backlit leaves.
