The title says it all. Baobab trees are fantastic and impactful in person. Here is a beautiful pair of images from Christopher Wilson, showing a Baobab at dusk, just as the stars begin lighting up the African skies.
And just for fun, here are some interesting facts about the Baobab:
Baobab is called Adansonia, named after French naturalist Michel Adanson
9 different species of Baobab exist
The largest Baobab had a trunk circumference of 154 feet!
The rings of a Baobab fade as they grow, making them very hard to count and assess age
Baobabs can store up to 32,000 gallons of water in their trunks to combat harsh weather conditions
