#ancienttree — Public Fediverse posts

Amid the historic landscapes of Eastnor Castle in Ledbury, a striking ancient tree rises from the woodland, its gnarled trunk and outstretched branches resembling a silent guardian of nature. Surrounded by lush greenery and the serene backdrop of the Malvern Hills, the area invites peaceful outdoor exploration and quiet reflection. The woodland views here are perfect for nature photography, offering glimpses of both carefully tended grounds and wilder corners where wildlife thrives. Visitors wandering the estate experience a timeless atmosphere, where history and nature intertwine. #AncientTree #NaturePhotography #WoodlandViews #OutdoorExploration #HistoricLandscapes

We fought hard to save the ancient trees & their life-sustaining wild ecosystems, to get Avatar Grove area protected & turned into a public park. It was previously on the corporate deforestation list prior to the hard grassroots fight to save this area of Port Renfrew, where old growth forests were rapidly dwindling due to colonial capitalist style of short-term greedy gains & putting nature last. Nature should be first.

This is from George Wharton Edwards, The Forest of Arden With Some of its Legends, New York, 1914, and by then inks didn’t fade much. But it was the four-colour process, making the pictures harder to reproduce.

I try to have colour pictures on the front page of frooldbooks.org to liven it up a bit, and so visitors see they are not all monochrome!

Checking on Medusa: A Slippery Slope to the Ancient Oak

Caught on Greenhow Bank in a shower and finding myself taking more time than anticipated, I decided to take a shortcut by descending the bank directissimo, which led me to a spot above Medusa.

My thought I would pay a visit to the old gorgon to check on her well-being. The descent was nothing short of heart-pounding, as I manoeuvered ...

An #AncientTree, these #trees are rich and rare ‘living heritage’ they need to be afforded far greater protection, for our #futuregenerations

#climateaction #cymru #Wales

3/3 @bluekoala065 I can’t enter being employed by @CoedCadw I need to get someone else to :) & I really should take a high res portrait photo of it, in it’s best light, I’d regret not doing it, to not catch it in its prime of life.
#ancienttree #trees #photography #treelovers #livinglegends

2/3 @bluekoala065 I thought it looked pagan-ish , or gothic, old hunting grounds 16th century ish. Antler shapes, with reaching arms. I love that it’s shaped the Summergill brooke, & possibly vice versa. Ash has the biggest biomass of roots, very deep rooted….It really ought to be in the #Cymru #treeoftheyear.

#ancienttree #trees #photography #treelovers #livinglegends

1/3 @bluekoala065 I love the Summergill Brooke Ash, an ancient tree nearly at its end of life, but in great condition! Quite unique because of its species - Ash dieback, & because of it’s location, a floodplain right on the Welsh boarders, and how its lifetime growing conditions have shaped it. An open grown ash tree, more than likely an Ash tree Silvopasture. Those branches had space to grow into…

Heres a 500 year old oak for you. This oak is in the grounds where I am staying and the camera simply can't capture its scale, majesty and gracious personhood.
