amazing...good idea to show the size related to man
Nature's umbrellas!
Yeah, these are really something extraordinary! I had to put myself in the photo so the size can really be appreciated.
Gotta love that name! Man that is one giant plant... I love the colour of leaves when sunlight streams through them!
