I was told that often these trees were planted as marker trees at significant points such as a corner of someone’s property. The phrase marker tree seems to have an American meaning, so I found Mr Google unhelpful.

.............it had been a strenuous crossing but the wind had continued to ease since dawn to give a flat calm as we approached the shallows of the Island and feeling our way through the reefs we could first spot ..........................

Someone must have SERIOUSLY fouled up there! It's all pilotage waters, and mostly fairly clear of hazards. On the boat trip where I took the photo, I was watching the buoyage, and there were plenty of cardinal marks to indicate hazards, too.

It’s a picture of a once famous event, introduced on HK Radio with the words (by an Australian announcer) “There’s been an improvement to the view of Lantau; it’s big, it’s blue, and it belongs to Mr Moller!”
In those days the pilots operated their own boats, in order to give the small motor boats in use some protection the pilot station was at Green Island, and it was quite the done thing for incoming container ships to race each other up the channel for the pilot, and therefore for the next berth at MTL.

Never mind. It will pass, and you can get a cure for it these days by going to an art gallery.
A very cold Colne yesterday.

It looks almost like a summers day at Chatham Marina but it was bitterly cold yesterday.
