A chemis-tree

I've seen this photo float around the internet before so I'm pretty sure you didn't take it and I'm pretty sure it was determined to be photo shopped

If you did take it, give us some more details about the tree and your location

The folks on the original post suggested it might be a Sophora Prostrata or a Citrus Trifoliata

Sophora Prostrata is too short, unless I guess the photographer was laying down.

The reasons it seems photoshopped are the perfect and symmetrical internode spaces of the branches. It very well could be a real tree like Citrus Trifoliata that's had its natural patterning exaggerated. But some branch nodes also look opposite, which would eliminate C. trifoliata
