Trees are the
oldest and the largest living things on earth. Some are weird, some
extraordinary, some gorgeous, and some shaped by the human hand to fascinate and
amuse. Please enjoy these images–or better yet, take a walk in the woods and
greet them in person with appreciation.
As Patricia Hays
suggested in the comments below, if you’re inclined, you can listen to Paul
Robeson sing about trees while you meander through this post. Thanks to Tom
