Description

as one can see the majority of the tree trunk is gone and what is left is rotting with a large hole big enough for your leg...but this tree refuses to give up. I think it can be applied to every day lifes I hope you are having a wonderful weekend and sincerely appreciate your visit and ideas/opinion

Two great photos. Yes, it is amazing how nearly dead and gone trees still keep on making leaves and branches. We have some on our place that are in similar condition. Year after year they keep on keeping on.

It is a shame that the most people go pass something like that without even having a look at it!! Nature has so much to give and you have the perfect eye for it!!! Excellent captured Richard!!!!
