Trees from a distance

So here's a better look of this tree. Around here, we refer to it as a Tartan Elm, (Ulmus minor), but I've also heard it called "Silver Elm", or for the fancier types, "Variegated Smooth Leaf Elm". I've done a lot of work within a mile of this tree in the last 35 years, and it often looks noticeably different from year to year, but always striking to pass by. It is the only known Tartan Elm in Portland, Oregon, which I find particularly fascinating.Buzzboard Tartan Elm.jpg

I thought it was variegated. Pretty amazing!
 
Of the hundreds of pictures of trees I have on my phone, none are from much distance, or particularly challenging, but here 'goes. Spready tree just to the right of center frame.
