Default TREES




I absolutely love trees. This one is very near where I live. They're like people: most you don't really notice, but every now and then you come across one which really stands out.

I'm always looking at trees. I use them in my work but I find them restful to the soul anyway; they're never in a hurry to be somewhere else, unlike us.

I'd really like to see photos of any remarkable trees or groups of trees you've come across, especially if they're near where you live.

I know a couple of them. Some are a little too ''interestingly shaped'' to be allowed here.


Here's a cherry tree I planted last autumn

Oaks are beautiful, it's mainly pine trees up here but there's the odd oak here and there.

Here's a couple of random pic I took last month:

I should add this chestnut tree

I also declared it a pagan holly site and want to be buried under it

I bet it's standing right next to it.
Note to myself: remember not to eat the low hanging chestnuts in Slovenia.

the tree is hollow and collects rainwater which then slowly runs out a small hole in the trunk.
