Took this 28 shot pano of a Moreton Bay fig tree at the University of WA in Feb 2006

Join to see EXIF info for this image (if available)

Yesterday about 1/3 of the tree crashed to the ground and was captured on video by Tim Stanley who was alerted by a loud sound before this happened.

that is a very sad video. That poor tree. I hope it heals up OK.

Ohhhh no. There's a very similar one in Santa Monica, CA that we saw this past summer.

They’re spectacular trees. This one in a botanic garden in the Azores
