This one is not fully mature. I would say it is about 10m high with a
trunk diam. of about 5m. I'll tyr your trick with the focal length.

This Baobab Tree is situated about 1Km away on the far bank of the
Olifants River gorge opposite the camp restaurant verandah. Perhaps a
bit beyond the limit of my HD 55-300? Now, Baobabs are actually giant
succulents often having hollow trunks. It is my contention this one
was struck by lightning - many branches at the top are gone & the
trunk is blown wide open. Must have been a hell of a bang.
Great shot. Just how big is this tree?
My HD 55-300 is a lot sharper at 260 mm and below, so that the photos
are better when I shoot at 260 and then blow them up if needed.
