Photographer's Note
Ipe red or purpura (Tabebuia gemmiflora) is a medium-sized slender tree common in the transitional area between the cerrado and caatinga biomes northeast of MG, and in southern Bahia, but non-existent in other regions of the country.
Ipe vermelho ou purpúria é uma árvore esguia, de pequeno a médio porte, bastante comum na região do Vale do Jequitinhonha, nordeste de MG, e no sul da Bahia, porém inexistente em outras regiões do país. Foi introduzida no paisagismo por Roberto Burle Marx, mas muito raramente encontrada em viveiros. Germinação fácil por sementes, desenvolvimento muito lento fora de seu habitat. Resiste bem a sêca e queimadas. Árvore rara e muito adequada para o paisagismo e jardinagem.
Família: Bignoniaceae. Nome científico: Tabebuia gemmiflora Rizzini & A. Mattos. Nomes populares: ipê-púrpura, ipê-vermelho

Hello Ricardo,
The tree is fantastic and it is well placed in the photo. I like the view of the hill to the left and the town to the right. The clouds are very nice too, so it's a fine photo in every part.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Ricardo,
The colour of this tree is so beautiful and even more so thanks to the bright sunlight. Also the big clouds in the blue sky make a nice backdrop and also the town at right is well included.

Hello Ricardo,
A very beautiful tree indeed.
Its red flowers sparkle beautifully against the background of a blue sky with white clouds.
To the right in the distance we catch a glimpse of colonial Diamantina.
Best regards, Paul
