A Withering Tree (A Skywatch Post)



If I remember it correctly, this huge tree on Ranggamalela Park (now Flexi Park) used to be green all-year round. (I know it because used to work at an office that was located just across the street from this park.) Even in the dry season, this tree was never as bald as this. I don't know what has made it this bald. The unusually wet summer may have played a part or the worsening air pollution level.

It's Friday and time for the Skywatch Friday meme. Please check out what the participating blogs have here.

a picture with a paradoxical hindsight. the pic is beautiful but the tree is or becomes ugly...

That is sad to lose a tree that you have known.
A good photo, though.
