  1. This scene's atmosphere touches the essence of jungle. I've been to several, but never able to capture it this way. Respect! Posted 12 years ago
  2. Very nice indeed!
    Ferdy, there is plenty of information about this tree in Wikipedia, but none of it is transferred, could you please check it.

"Ceiba pentandra" is a tropical tree of the order Malvales and the family Malvaceae, native to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, northern South America, and to tropical west Africa. Kapok is the most used common name for the tree and may also refer to the cotton obtained from its seed pods.
