Taken at or near sunset.
The roots of this tree exposed by erosion make it look as if it is a walking tree.

10D or perhaps 20D??

I think you way overdid it on the saturation making it look a little cartoonish - it has a lot of potential with some tweaks.

A tip toe tree. Never seen that before

I agree on the over saturation. Lovely area though

Love the composition, and the tree is amazing. The colors look overdone on my screen though.

Cool comp. I'd try shooting thru those legs with that fisheye.

Well found. I'd like to see a shot with the tree and the background as rocks only, not sure if it's possible to back off and use a longer lens to do that though?

Yes, a bit over saturation on my monitor, too: it looks a bit "psychedelick"!
Anyway, a great perspective and incredible tree: I've never seen anything like that!
