“I’ve lived a very long, long time…”

DSCN5788-1

We thought this tree looked like it might belong in a fantasy tale…

“My name is growing all the time, and I've lived a very long, long time; so my name is like a story. Real names tell you the story of the things they belong to in my language, in the Old Entish as you might say. It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to.”

Treebeard the Ent in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings
(The Two Towers, Chapter 'Treebeard')

Yes, this tree looks so old it seems like it's barely hanging on. It does remind me of something in a fairy tale!! It looks like there's a bird nesting box on it. Is it still alive? I would like to see the rest of it up higher, also.

Ginny, the tree doesn't go much higher, as far as I remember the branches at the top were like the ones you see on the left and right. I think there is some life in it still.

DawnTreader's Picture Book

For this blog, I have chosen a template that allows me to show pictures as big as possible . Some of the things you usually find in the sidebar, you will find here at the bottom of the page instead - Blog Archive, Followers etc.







My camera is a Nikon Coolpix 4600.
For basic editing of most photos and collages I use Picasa 3.
Sometimes I also experiment with some more "artistic" effects in Photoshop Elements or Paint Shop Pro.
