This Saturday, between 10 in the morning and noon, Fine art photographer Jack Gescheidt will take pictures of naked people in the trees. But done artistically, of course so don't expect glossy photos of Julia Butterfly Hill all greased up and in baby T’s. This is all part of his "TreeSpirit" photography series and the thing is being billed not just as a protest but "a celebration of trees!" Or, ast the site says, to "celebrate the connection between human beings and trees through graceful portraits of unclothed people among trees." Hell, add some free beer and we're totally there.

Well how does this help the cause? First of all, nothing draws attention to anything like naked people. Even if they are of the tree hugging hippie variety. Then there's the symbolism, that being to photograph "naked humans in communion with trees-- depicting our interdependence with trees in general." Nothing says making a statement like symbolism.
