    What an incredible tree! There has always been a huge tree near me fallen on its side but very much alive. Must have been like that for years and years… all the branches grew out its side straight up to the sky. I drove past the other day and its gone! I felt so shocked, such a sense of loss. Trees should not be cut down.

      Beautiful, isn’t it, even in decay. I agree with you.. I had a huge chestnut that overhung the garden… and came home one day to men with chainsaws. It felt like a bereavement.

  3. The dead things in nature feed the living. Everything enriches the soil. Nature always recycles. 🙂

    It is a sad image, but majestic somehow. Nature shows us that there is no end, not really, just a never ending cycle of which we are all a part…

  6. Natures ancient sentinels standing lofty and aloof. Witness to the passing of the ages. I love trees.

    Here grows flesh between bones, what old and fallen remind me of as the new grow up between that which recedes with time, returning back to the soil.
