Yup. From here looks like some sort of Taxodium distichum, baldcypress, maybe ‘pendens’ because of the long branches. The form you included is right – I replied on Flickr too. BTW – Lissa has a good eye.

Thanks. I could have just emailed you directly, because I knew you were the only one likely to be able to answer this. But blogging it was more fun.
I agree about the blogging sir. I was a little disappointed that you didn’t title your entry ‘Hey Dano, what tree is this?’. ;o)
Best,
D
