I really don't know what the name of this tree is, but I do know that it is a very photogenic tree and would be a great starting point for a painting or illustration.
These photos were taken with my iPhone. Iphone shots are a good starting point for digitial editing. Once again I experimented with my new PS filters, Topaz and Nik. I have included a black and white version, but as you can see gave it an orange border, which I suppose is cheating a little.
Welcome again to Mandarin Orange Monday. I wonder what you have to show this time? It is fun waking up on Monday morning to see your pictures and comments. I always respond to your contribution with a visit and sometimes by replying here in the comments as well. It might be a few days before I get to you.... by I do get there eventually.

This tree seems ageless and eternal at the same time,loving your makeover!!!A real star!
Wow! I am very impressed. I like the way you play with the color. Amazing!
Love the ones with the gradient! nice work!
Each color blends into the other so beautifully and gracefully as if they have always been parts of the same rainbow :)
You always capture such beautiful images. I love the tweaks with the photo editing.
You have a magnificent tree.
Your tree reminds me of a strangler fig, which is common in Florida. I love the way you colorized the various shots you took, Lorik. I tried doing the same with the photograph of my poinsettias, but I didn't like it. They do have some oranges in the flower center, and their are some orange hues in the limestone wall of my house. Blessings!
Cool photos! I really like the first one with the desaturation effect. But all of them are great :)
Hope you're having a nice weekend.
Wow! This is so pretty! I have never seen a tree like this. Wish I had some orange to link. Maybe next week. :)
Stunning photos of the trees. Facinating! Reminds me of my visit in Redwood Forest ages ago:)
They look like the banyun trees that we have here in central florida. Cool shots!
Of course nature does wondrous things, but I love the changes you made, brings out the beauty!
Gorgeous photos, beautiful trees, beautiful oranges.
Greetings.

I don´t remember where you live but, have a great winters day. :)
great shots and beautiful editing :)
lol, you did not have ice. :)
My candle is refleced in a 3-glass window and I focused on the ice´ed one. :)
I like when people is online when I am. :)
I love the last picture. Colors from earth to the sky. Wonderful!
this is a banyan tree (ficus), it's called balete tree here in the Philippines.
great processing!
Great treatment of these Ficus trunks. Orange suits them :-)
Thanks for hosting.
so wonderful!
Ow wow, that tree lends itself perfectly for the effects you're creating with it. Beautifully done!
Beautiful, Lorik. My first thought was the banyan tree. Not sure.
The forth and fifth shots make me think of the feet of some huge creature...
I love these trees, whatever they may be! They have so much character!!
Terrific digital photo art. Happy PPF, Annette G

Very interesting shot! Would like to know how old that tree is...
Cool dreamy looking trees...
I do love tree pictures ... they are all so unique even in being the same. Your new filters have opened woderous doors for you and you, of course, know how to take advantage of that. I love the gnarly oldness of your chosen tree and the uniqueness of the orange and blue patinas. I have pulled to the side of the road to capture such a tree ... aren't they wonderful?
