Well done. That reminds me of one of those cell phone towers disguised as a tree I drive by quite often. It is in the middle of a very large, very flat plain. I don't think there is another tree within 10 miles of it.
That's so strange. I don't see why they couldn't just pick a color that matched the other trees around it even slightly. The out-of-place ones I see that are among other trees are usually out-of-place because they are just so much taller, not a completely different color.
We moved to AZ from TN last year. TN doesn't really bother with hiding the towers whereas AZ sometimes camouflages them; especially in the richer areas such as Scottsdale.
My wife told me about some weird tree she saw which turned out to be a cell tower. I take great joy in reminding her periodically about that.
Yeah, I think the tree camouflage does just make it worse sometimes and they should just stick with painting it a muted grey/blue so it kind of blends with the sky.
Or let local artists "adopt" and paint the cell towers. In my town, artists paint unique murals and designs on the ugly public utility boxes on street corners. Though cell towers don't have many flat surfaces to paint..
Theme parks paint the exteriors of buildings housing large rides and theaters in "go-away gray" or "go-away green" so that the public generally doesn't notice them.
