Twist And Shout

A longer walk, deeper in the woods to higher ground, I came upon a twisted tree below me. Moss covered and lit by cloud filtered light, through a thinning canopy overhead.

It occurred to me that I first walked in these woods fifty years ago. Looking up, I wondered how old some of the bigger trees are. It seems I'm destined to return from time to time.

Unfortunately the sound of motorway traffic disturbed the peace, causing me to take a different path.

I took two shots, intending to focus stack them, but due to being handheld, they failed to align adequately.

Last day of my trip, contemplating my return.
