The Dead Cedar Tree

Evening light on Cedar Lane. Butleigh, Somerset. I loved the long shadows and the shape of the dead cedar tree in the field

I have added a song called Cedar Lane by First Aid Kit

I think it will take more than a bandage to fix the poor tree!!

Parece que se ve como una venda; algún bromista o ¿le están haciendo una transfusión de sabia? :--) La imagen tiene muy buen color, luces y sombras.

What a pity, it was once a beautiful tree. Today it's a good photo opporutnity and it stays forever because it gives its name to the road... HFF Carol.

Ecobird ^club has replied to Christa1004 ^club

Thank you very much Christa. It is but I like the shape of it. The road is even named after the cedar trees so I am sure there will be plenty of others growing both now and in the future.

Lovely evening light and long shadows in a superb image, Cedar and Hemlock both suffer from a form of blight that can prove fatal I believe,

Eine wunderschöne Landschaft in abendlichen Licht, Carol.
O ja, die abgestorbene Zeder hebt sich ganz besonders hervor.
Schade das im Zeichen des Klimawandels so viele Bäume sterben müssen.

Schöne Grüße aus Deutschland, nach Gewitter, Hagel und Sturm.
