17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Solitary Tree of Lake Wanaka

The iconic solitary tree at Lake Wanaka, South Island (NZ). A picture of inanimate stoical quality that's awe-inspiring. I hope this amazing tree survives the onslaught of attention from being famous, so may future generations can enjoy this natural landmark.
