It looks like a mistake of nature – and yet is a masterpiece of survival. Wolzig's burr pine stands like an ancient dancer, balancing barefoot on tiptoes, its exposed roots digging into the sand like fingers.

Of adaptation. And of the quiet dignity of one who does not complain, but grows. Everyone who stands before it suddenly falls silent. Perhaps because they sense: This pine has understood more about life than many a person with sturdy shoes.
