[Closed] Photo thread - bike leaning on a tree

Great googly moogly, how much of that is roots and how much is real girth? That's a big bastard of a redwood

I always wanted to get a picture of my Hemlock beside a Hemlock

Doesn't really do the sculpture justice. It's my favourite one at Grizedale.

Googly Moogly ..Maggie & The Ferocious Beast ..?
Nearly did my head in when my boy was a toddler..

Sweet tree bro.

Mine's a bit underwhelming by comparison...

Is Gorse a tree or is it shrubbery? 😉

Was looking at OP's post, thinking there aren't many around here, must know it...

Scroll down for more picture...

Answer. One of the two I was thinking of.

Rather like colournoise second image.

A couple of local trees ..

I miss this bike, should never have split it. Photo obviously taken with a potato.

Do bits of dead tree count? This is just to make milky1980 jealous really.
