We will start from an insects perspective and move out in 3 steps if you can't get it.

Identify this tree.

Boy, these are hard. I went back to the first shot and still can't identify it as anything other than a tree :D.
Its funny how differently people see the same thing. The largest arrowhead or knife actually I've ever seen had my footprints on each side of it. It was too large for me to notice, my buddy always saw edges not outlines and picked it up laughing...its on his wall now instead of mine :-[ :D
