This photo was made in a January snow storm in Silver City, New Mexico. The tree in this photo is a Deodar cedar, or just "deodar", is a large stately conifer with horizontal spreading branches and a conical shape. Lower branches bend gracefully downward and then up again. Deodar is fairly fast growing for the first decade or two, growing as high as 30 ft (9.1 m) in its first 10 years. It can grow to 150 ft (45.7 m) tall with a 40 ft (12.2 m) spread at ground level. More typically, though, they stay less than 50 ft (15.2 m) tall but specimens in their native Himalaya mountain range have been found more than 200 ft (61 m) tall!

They say a tree this big and pretty adds $7,000 to the value of the property.

I love how the tree dwarfs everything. Interesting capture in many ways.

It sure does make a huge statement on this property. The lower limbs do not hang down and cover the building normaly - of course the snow is helping make the limbs bend down ...........
