This magnificent willow tree had me stopped in my tracks, stunned. These photos do no justice at all to the actual beauty I saw. This tree is a baby sister to where the elves live in middle earth. It was the inspiration to the tree of souls for the na'vi. This willow tree seemed so huge and majestic, standing there stoic and lit by the setting sun. All the nooks along the trunk were emphasized. It made me fantasize that I was a wood nymph on the way home from skipping and frolicking all day to drink fermented syrup and sing spirited songs. Oh the good life.

Also look at these beauts...
