SteemitPhotoChallenge 32: Entry #2 - Monkey Puzzle Tree
What? Another entry from @rigaronib?!
Duh, I told you that I was going to break my streak!
This is my Second entry to this weeks challenge:
Monkey Puzzle Tree
This photo was taken with the 8mp camera (while set to HDR mode) on my Blu R1 hd phone.
In case you missed this excerpt from my first entry:
Araucaria araucana (commonly called the monkey puzzle tree, monkey tail tree, Chilean pine, or pehuén) is an evergreen tree growing to 1–1.5 m (3–5 ft) in diameter and 30–40 m (100–130 ft) in height. It is native to central and southern Chile and western Argentina.[1]Araucaria araucana is the hardiest species in the conifer genus Araucaria. Because of the longevity of this species, it is described as a living fossil. It is also the national tree of Chile. Its conservation status was changed to Endangered by the IUCN in 2013 due to the dwindling population.[2]
These are some of the coolest trees that I have ever seen!
And possibly the most painful.
