Painted Eucalyptus Photo

Photographer’s Note

The vegetation on Hawaii is amazing. Many species I've never seen before. These Painted Eucalyptus trees are among the rare species to be found at the arboretum on the way to Hana.

I burned down the washed out highlights in pp.

Hi Eva,
I never thought of a bark these colorful.
Thanks for sharing. Are those leaves from the Eucalyptus tree?

Regards,
Miguel

I used to think only leaves could have colours. The trunk is usually something between black and white with variations а brown, I'd say. But this is amazing! Yellow and red and violet - all at a time!
