Some trees just have an inspired shape; this was one to meditate under.

I like the different levels of green stretching back into the image. Also the big fat raven center right. The tree has a mysterious quality.

@Observing: That same squawky crow was keeping me awake in the tree above my tent that very morning....

I agree on the shapes taken by trees . . I often think of of all the tiny 'decisions' make by the tree in forming those magnificent shapes . . all the factors taken into account.

@Ronnie 2¢: Its natures own conspiracy theory, a fact of wind, rain, sun, soil, and location that all conspire to create an intricate and unique design.

It looks like a beautiful place to meditate, I love the shape of the branches on this tree and the grass that looks so lovely and soft in the gentle light... I might have had a nap after the meditation I think ;o)
