Angel Oak Park, John's Island, SC

This is a shot of the amazing Southern Live Oaks in St. Johns Park outside of Charleston.  
These trees were the focal point of a currently running Allstate television ad saluting the strength of the Carolinas following the devastation of Hurricane Florence.   It's rumored that they are the oldest living things east of the Mississippi River and remains standing despite all the harsh weather and natural disasters they have faced over the past 500 years. Allstate likens  their strength to the resilience that resides in us all, and the courage shown by Hurricane Florence victims.
