Just having a little fun with Gilles Tran's tree macro. This could be
the start of a cool alien planet (in search of Yoda) ; ).

Looks a bit like the mangrove trees I used to see when living in FL.
I was thinking they had darker leaves similar to rhodadendron except
maybe smaller (than those largeish rhodadendren types). Depends, and I'm
speaking in general, very generally. Been too long ago to know, so I
tried looking them up, haven't seen a picture yet though. Several
varieties anyway. The left-most one looks real good. The roots seem to
get a bit thin though. They stay pretty thick down to the mud for the
most part, but I'm just trying to be a critique, looks neat, and
different. One thing I should mention is the seedlings in mangroves that
hang with their thin roots dangling from the branches until they fall
into the water to grow apart from the parent tree (I'm quoting from
encyclopedia, but I remember seeing that).

I met him in swamp down in Dagobah,
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda,
S-O-D-A, soda.
I saw the little runt sitting there on a log,
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said,
"Yoda," Y-O-D-A, Yoda, Yo, Yo, Yo, Yoda.
Well, I been around but I ain't ever seen
a guy who looks like a muppet but he's wrinkled and green,
Oh my Yoda, Yo, Yo, Yo, Yoda,



Sorry.  Had to.
