When I looked at the scaled photo at first, I thought it was a Baobob -- I guess because I'm a fan of Le Petit Prince. But I think the perspective distortion from the angle the photo was snapped at gives an exaggerated fullness to the trunk. Plus upon closer inspection the foliage appears more like needles than broadleafs, and the trunk has the scaley look of something in the cedar family. So that's my SWAG. Do I earn my forestry badge?

I can ask her to sing it for you. She may be a bit shy but who knows? She has her own YouTube channel after all

EDIT: Here you go. Maria was more than happy to oblige. I had to wrap it in tar to pacify the TMO uploader.

That is true... I usually always use "other definition" on every camera-topic

Went for a hike yesterday to a really nice place, that puts me on a high positive mode .

So here the photo.

I used a Samsung Galaxy J4+, no editing was done.

Mänty.
The picture on the right side is pretty much what the photographed scpecimen looked like.
I would just translate it to "pine", but Wikipedia botanists do not agree.

There is 90 species of pinus in the Pinaceae family, so I think Pine is an acceptable translation of your tree. At least I can't find no one better.

I just can't post the small image which you can click to bigger. So copy the url of the image and paste it in a new window to see this correctly (if you use micro-b as I do for the forum).

I change my entry to this. What makes you high? Well God. The church here just represents christian experience of God (which I have exprerienced), so not for the institution and not either the formal theology (which I disagree to be either neccessary or true in some points).

This building was lightened in LUX Helsinki exhibition, the biggest church in Helsinki (not sure if in all Finland). It looks like very dirty and/or colourfull which both for me show the church/christianity in the right light. Yet makes me high (when I get to talk abot these matters or when I happen to fall into deep thinking/meditation of these matters).

No religious talks in this forum though which is good. Just made a point for this picture (hope I didn't offend or cross the line what here is accepted).

BlessN900 with just a slight crop from the sides (to get some light spots off) and scaled to 77%.
