Oh, the beautiful old tree - to think of all it has seen!! You have captured that feeling eloquently. The sturdinest of the tree that reassures us, the beauty of the blue water seen through the younger trees that give us hope. Thank you for magnificent picture.

this is really nice, - like the way the background "drops down" behind the great tree. We have an area like this just close to home, we used to walk there with our dogs when we first moved here 20 years ago, but it's got houses built there now, so we can't get close to the edge anymore.
