While not a tree (bamboo is a grass) it is a lovely photo with the photographer displaying a great eye for composition.

nice capture, the DOF is very good... won't complain that bamboo is actually grass.

Did you know that "Everlasting Bamboo" is in fact a plant from the lily family - not a bamboo at all? Now trees come in all shapes and sizes but bamboo is more of a grass-like genus, I think.

DNMC ;) bamboo is not a tree its a grass (Poaceae family), great shot though.

edit, did a search, lucky bamboo is not even bamboo, its a flowering shrub in the Ruscaceae family.
