Nature Trees

[Panolyman]

We came across this tree recently, behind Tortworth church in Gloucestershire.
It's recorded that the tree was planted from a Sweet Chestnut nut in 800 A.D.
Unfortunately it's on private land right behind the cemetery wall with limited access and restricted view.
I only had my little TG5 travel camera with me, so couldn't capture a wide view of it.

This is one of the very few remaining Horse Chestnut trees still standing along the Broad Walk of the Bathurst Estate in Cirencester, Gloucestershire.
There used to be over a hundred of them lining the avenue, which was almost 3 miles long.
Sadly, they're coming to the end of their lives and most have already fallen.
They are gradually being replaced by Small-Leaved Lime trees, which I look forward to seeing in another hundred years or so.

That's a full-sized human, giving a sense of scale.

Very few old Jarrah trees still stand in the hills east of Perth, an area logged extensively following settlement. This example was probably too old, burnt and gnarled to be logged. Thus it must be a number of centuries old.

An odd shaped cabbage tree at the local park.

The autumn is in full swing, within 48 hours all the tress got the hint and started undressing all at once.

139 MegaPickleRicks panorama for added depth and stronger separation from the background. I am very tempted to try my first 3x A3 panorama split print and ducktape it together because McGiver is in my blood ... Blood transfusion using a straw, some bubblegum and a paper clip
