“To understand a tree, stand under a tree.”

A fifty foot tall liquid amber tree stands off in the distance, bottom half shaded, top half in bright sunlight. In the foreground, a man leans into the frame, his hand at his chin, as if pondering. Back in the distance, the same man is seen standing underneath the tree, next to its trunk.
