I have my doubts that it is in the New Forest? Lovely woody scenes.
They certainly are, in an area called Blackwater, tall trees arboretum. between Lyndhurst and Brockenhurst… 😉
Well done!
Thank you very much appreciated, 😉
Beautiful shots! I especially like the one of the pine tree!
Thank you, I must agree with you on that, it was more impressive for real.. 😉
Superb landscape shot Gerry, have a nice weekend!
Thank you Della and you too.. welcome 😉
Gerry, I just watched a documentary about the New Forest. I learnt that it has existed since the days of William the Conqueror. It’s interesting that in summer when tourists flock to the forest, they never wander far from the road. But deeper in, for those who walk far from the noise of the town, the forest is regenerative. One man talked about the trees that survive despite ponies and cows and deer. He said an oak takes 300 years to grow, 300 years to live and 300 years to die. Fantastic. I enjoyed watching this.
Yes Trish this is so right, I had done a few post about the forest, and today it is still wondered why it is called the New Forest ass it is very old actually. And yes most just follow standard tracks and roads, few delve deeper to find the treasures..’;)
Lovely photos for this challenge.
Thank you Janaline, very much appreciated and welcome. 😉
Beautiful images. May favorite is where the stream flows in betweem the gigantic trees.
Nice choice, mine is the giant redwood.. but they are all good and to be there is pretty special view.. Thank you and welcome. 😉
Nothing like being in the woods communing with nature. Lovely. Margie
