   We've got one of those pretty near my place.   
   It's at the side of the freeway. As you get   
   close, it looks unnaturally symmetrical and   
   you can tell it's fake. Plus it's at the top   
   of a hill that looks like the typical antenna   
   farm.   
      
   But I think it looks a lot more natural than   
   the pine tree or palm tree variants.   
      
   In our case (here in Phoenix) I imagine they're not trying   
   to hide it, just tone down the visual impact. Passersby   
   still can tell it's an antenna. It just doesn't look   
   like a typical cell tower.   
      
   I think it would be quite easy to add some "bird nest damage"   
   and other "naturalizing" to make it blend in if that   
   was the desired effect.
