Bookmark - Background Pattern Series, Banyan Strands

Banyan trees must be some of the most unusual species on the planet, with these strands just hanging in the air.  Didn't get much from my research as to exactly what their function is, but they look neat and make pretty good subject matter in a photograph.

They're all over the world in equatorial and sub-equatorial zones, but this particular shot was taken at the Taipei Zoo.
