An old tree with a thick, gnarled trunk is held up by wooden poles and crossbars in front of a glass office building in Tokyo. Its twisting branches spread in every direction under a dense canopy of green leaves. The wooden framework runs through the crown and supports the heavier limbs. Behind the branches, the glass facade and floor lines of a high-rise fill the background, contrasting nature with the modern city.
