13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Tree Sculpture

While my recent stay at Umaid bhavan palace,Jodhpur,India I was walking one early morning. There, I saw a large tree trunk on the ground. Upon inquiring I was told that during a typhoon a large tree had fallen but was still strongly rooted.so to allow the tree to regrow the palace staff trimmed the branches so creatively and made a art deco living piece. The guests enjoying the swimming pool who keep getting amazed of this environmentally conscious efforts to conserve this fallen tree....excellent!
