Such an ethereal photograph Damian those tree trunks have such an otherworldly feel to them.

Lovely contrast and sense of motion and flow Nij.

Sounds wonderful Mick, hope the weather stays kind and enjoy the rest of your trip.

A beautiful photograph and skilfully composed Euan.

What a lovely photograph Mick, sounds like you are having a good time.

I so like how the two pairs compliment and balance each other. That was a really nice find Damian.

A great long exposure Nij really adds to the atmosphere of the photograph.

That's good to hear Damian, your photography deserves to be enjoyed by many folk.

That's a lovely family connection Damian, it must of been nice for you to see it doing well. It's great to see trees doing well, considering the climate and disease challenges they have nowadays.

So well deserved Damian, hopefully it will allow more folk to enjoy your photography.

It certainly is a lovely part of my job watching trees grow that l have planted over the years Damian. Mind you it does make me feel.old when l revisit locations to see how much trees have grown since l planted them! The old Oak was stunning but it really had just come to the end of its life span.

Many thanks Damian, it was nice to get some good conditions a couple of weeks ago. It's nice to see the Oak establishing. l planted it a few years ago to replace an ancient one that got blown down in a storm.

Very easy to see why Damian it rests wonderfully on the eye.

Hi Nij, it was nice to get some good conditions recently. Let's hope we all get some more soon!

Just such a beautiful photograph and photography Damian.

Marcescent Oak and Pyrus trees, Exmoor.

Really nice Damian. I like how the cropping of the view of the tree, shows it's frame and reflects the structure of the fence. Or it does for me anyway!!

A beautiful photograph Jochen.

Lovely contrast in both black and white and motion. Really nice work Damian.

A great title and photograph Damian.Such beautiful atmospheric conditions for those of us who love mood! I so like your choice of crop and the space it gives, really adds so much to the photograph.

It's tough up North Mick! They should be fine down here in a walled garden just need to put them back in the greenhouse for Winter.

Still hopefully the weekend looks reasonable Damian, fingers crossed for us all.

Most definitely Damian, mind you yesterday really did feel Spring like here. Although the citrus trees definitely won't be coming out of the greenhouse for a few more weeks!

Thanks Jim, you too.

That's very beautiful Jim.

Many thanks Damian, l am pleased you thought the same. I had a different day at work today as l was buying Citrus trees for an outdoor Kitchen. Mediterranean lifestyle coming to Exmoor!

Well done keep repeating Damian! Who could not enjoy these photographs.

Such an ethereal photograph Damian, ghost like figures, beautiful photography.
