A lone tree in winter.

A lone tree in winter.
A lone tree that I have known most of my life. It still sits forlornly in my local valley not far from where I was brought up as a boy. I have seen this valley bottom transformed from a wild wilderness, to a mini golf course and then into a lovely natural park-way which is now part of the ‘Oldham Way’ long distance walk (for us anyway :)) enjoyed by many local walkers and dog walkers alike. The tree however is now a shadow of even the one you see here on which birds used to sing. Just a dead stump about half the size of this younger self.

This lone tree is very sculptural Herb. It makes a great picture, especially in the snow!
All the best, Rosa.

It's a pity that it's now a dead stump.

You've really nailed the focus on that tree Herb.............it stands out proudly from the snowy background. I can see why you like it so much. Even past it's prime, it still makes a wonderful photographic subject!
