361: Pine cone
When you think of Brazil, then you would imagine vast forests, idyllic beaches, extensive wetlands. Tropical rain forests with many exoctic, evergreen trees, plants, and colorful flowers, and large palm tree plantations. Some would think of the coffee and sugarcane plantations, but few would associate Brazil with pine trees. For those, it is quite surprise to meet the large pine trees in South Brazil, where the climate is moderate, with colder winters. In the state of Paraná, it is very common to meet the typical candelabra pine trees. Nuts from these trees are used for some local dishes. When talking about the ‘fruits’ from pine trees, you can also meet pine cones in the higher regions of Minas Gerais, like this pine cone that I found near the entrance of Mangabeiras Park.

306: Pine tree branch
Undoubtedly, you’ll find pine trees in the cold climates of North America, Northern Europe and North Asia. In temperate climates – including the Netherlands – you meet mixed forests of broadleaf trees and conifers. It is difficult to imagine that pine trees can also be found in tropical regions. Particularly in southern Brazil, where the winters are somewhat cold, you regularly find pine trees. The Brazilian pine, the araucaria, is the national tree of the state of Paraná. However, this tree species belongs to the conifer family. In the cold mountainous areas of Minas Gerais, many coniferous trees are found, especially at high altitudes. The pine tree in the picture is located near the Mangabeiras City Park.

104. Pine tree
MAY 2007: Pine tree
When you will meet this pine tree, you won’t imagine yourself in the tropics. This pine tree, however, was found on Santa Catarina Island, near Pântano do Sul Beach. This beach is one of the more than forty beaches on this island, within reach from the city of Florianópolis. Pântano do Sul Beach is flanked by some green hills. I had climbed one of these hills; from the top, the view on Pântano do Sul Beach and the Atlantic Ocean was breathtaking. When we were back on the beach, we didn’t allow ourselves a lot of rest; we continued our walk for another six kilometers to another beach, were a number of our friends were waiting for us.
