3200 Years In One Photo

 This tree is in Northern California.
  
 
Not every tree has a nickname, but
'The President' has earned it. This giant
sequoia stands at 247 feet tall,

and is estimated to be over 3,200 years old.
Imagine, this tree was already 1200 years old
when Jesus walked the earth.      

The trunk of the  president measures at 27 feet
across, with 2 BILLION needles from base to top.    

  Because of its unbelievable size, this tree has
never been photographed in its entirety.

Until now. A team of National Geographic
photographers have worked along with
scientists to try and create the first photo
that shows the president in all its glory.    

  They had to climb the tree with pulleys and levers,
and took thousands of photos.

  Of those, they selected 126 and stitched them
together, to get this incredible portrait of the
President.    

And here it is:

  
Incredible, yes or no?
