The above tree is Prunus serrula, the Paperbark Cherry tree from Southwest China. The bark on this tree peels away like a plastic film and was beautiful to behold in person on close inspection. At the same time, it wasn't much to look at from a distance. Nothing like this tree...
I love how the arms seem to branch out and up somewhat evenly and then irregularly. What do the trees look like in your area right now? Are they exhibiting beautiful fall colors or have they already entered their winter slumber?
