- Ficus macrophylla, commonly known as the Moreton Bay Fig, is a large evergreen banyan tree of the Moraceae family that is a native of most of the eastern coast of Australia, from the Atherton Tableland (17° S) in the north to the Illawarra (34° S) in New South Wales, and Lord Howe Island. Its common name is derived from Moreton Bay in Queensland, Australia. It is best known for its beautiful buttress roots.
The Moreton Bay Fig is an evergreen tree that can reach heights of 60 m (200 ft). The trunk can be massive, with thick, prominent buttressing, and reach a diameter of 2.4 m (8 ft). The rough bark is grey-brown, and marked with various blemishes. It is monoecious: each tree bears functional male and female flowers. - Interesting capture!!! - Meline's busy off most of the time

I love looking at your creative side, Ben, seeing how you shoot your photos to produce this masterpiece of art! I hope you use this as part of your biography when you sell your work!
It's magnificent! I love the kaleidoscope of colors in your tree, the blue hat with your blue jeans, and how you placed yourself on the tree in that pose. It's really fun seeing your work!
