What I wanted most from my visit to Jericho was a picture of a Sycamore Tree. The biblical character Zaccheus climbed a Sycamore in Jericho in order to see Jesus. Jesus called for the greedy tax collector to come down from the tree and to be his host. After time with Jesus, Zaccheus offered half of his possessions to the poor and returned four times the amount he took from the people.

I photographed what I thought was a Sycamore tree before we approached other trees with Sycamore potential. I had no idea what a Sycamore looked like. I insisted Adam stop to allow me a picture of a tree and then another and another before focusing on our next destination, the River Jordan.
