This tree stands on a parking lot which is hidden behind rose shrubs. To protect it against car bumps the municipality provided it (and about twenty other ones) with a wooden cloth.

Good idea for the protection. Nice view. Good eye!

I give a comment on my own picture. I am stunned about the DOF which is achieved by digital cameras and/or modern lenses nowadays. On this picture, shot by a "simple" and relatively cheap camera, the DOF is far wider than the human eye: one cannot see the roses as sharply as the tree on the horizon, like the camera can. Fourty years ago this was far more difficult to achieve, especially when the light wasn't optimal like in this picture (in the evening with a low standing sun).

@HorseRotorVator: Thanks HRV, Shahab saw it, too and I had to haste because the sun was every now and then covered by a cloud and I just wanted the pic also because of the light spot on the tree, accentuating the funny protection planks.
Marvellous place! I like the colors and the presence of the roses really gives something to the photo. I like the wood around the tree too...
