Saint Paul and the royal poincianna



This is Saint Paul's Episcopal church in downtown Key West. As a bonus, you get a beautiful royal poincianna tree in full bloom! The only thing I would like better is if there wasn't that darn light pole. Photo taken in May 2010.

  1. What a beautiful WHITE church! The clouds look like they are shooting out of the top of it. Wow.

    I've never seen a banyan tree - I enlarged the photo and see that it is a very beautiful tree!!!

  4. This brings back some memories! Some 20 years ago we attended Mass there with my daughter's mother-in-law. It is a beautiful church.

  5. Hope you don't mind my saying this ...Key West is loaded with these beautiful trees and they are called Royal Poincianna's ... banyan trees do not blossom.

  7. It appears this is not really a banyan. Sort of disappointing as St. Paul and the Banyan sounded really nice. :)

  8. A difficult shot but very well taken. I love the color of poinciannas. They are a lot growing in lawrence gardens lahore.
