Photographer is Documenting Ancient Baobab Trees Before They All Disappear
Trees literally stand the test of time. The oldest tree in the world is a bristlecone pine at 5,062 years old. Climate change, however, is threatening the world's ancient trees and wreaking devastation among certain populations. California-based photographer Beth Moon has photographed ancient trees around the globe since 2006. Her stunning black-and-white images of the ancient baobab trees of Madagascar, Senegal, and South Africa are a tribute to the endangered giants.
