You know he is there, standing
in a field, like all the others
but he is not like them.
from ‘The Baobab Tree’ by Rachel Sawaya

I love these words from Rachel’s prize-winning poem (more about that and her here). In a few deceptively simple words she encapsulates what I love about the baobab: it is not like any other. No facts and figures today. Instead, I hope my photos, taken in Tanzania in 2014, will speak to you of the Baobab.
