Amazing how talented the local tree trimmers are these days when it comes to topiary. This tall pine near Federal Way and Vista Ave. in Boise looks just like a cell phone tower.
The cell tower in rural France is hard to recognize in this shot, but the French have a reputation for being good artists.

They’ve been doing this for years up north – Google Coeur d’Alene cell tower tree images for a look at one of the more obvious towers.
Some question whether they’re actually cell towers or intercepts, but I really don’t care if LE wants to listen to my calls – in fact, I hope the calls with my dad and MIL are just as torturous for them. Maybe I’ll have to start blurting out random terrorist-related words and phrases just so the folks might get a little excitement. = >

YEARS of such. Look up “monopine” and “monopalm” as examples. Many cities’ DRB or even city code require them for any new cell tower installation.

It took a real genius to make a cell tower even more ugly.
