W/NW Trees

This beautiful oak tree with Spanish moss used to stand outside Dunkin' Doughnuts on a street corner in Wilmington NC, however it was cut down during a redevelopment of the site. It reminds me of some words in the liner notes to a song by Ry Cooder called My Name Is Buddy: "I'm getting worried about trees. Seems like every time you turn around, there's one less big old tree. Some joker thinks it's in the way of some crooked scheme of his, so he chops the tree down. There goes another 150-year old tree. Now, the way I see it, that tree makes that particular place interesting. Take away the tree and you start to have no-place in that place. What you get instead is junk, like a mall or a parking lot." Of course they can be good to photograph too, but you get my drift...
