Title is from an old song - "In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, on the Trail of the Lonesome Pine". This pine gets my vote. It's in the heart of the Blue Ridge at Big Meadows in Shenandoah National Park. I stop to visit this tree every time at the park - which is several times a month - and have gotten some nice images over the past 2-3 years. I'm probably only about 20 to 25 feet away here (down in the grass) -the wide angle perspective is deceiving.
