Into the Twisted Trees
Photo of the Week
Photo Information
From a morning at Padley Gorge, near Grindleford in Derbyshire yesterday. This is a superb location, almost prehistoric in its look and atmosphere, well worth a visit if you ever get the chance, particularly in Spring when the Bluebells are out or in Autumn / Winter when it becomes a very dramatic landscape.
I'm proud that this image has been selected for 'Explore' in Flickr.

The green trunks and branches seem electrified. Just stunning. A lesson in composition and PP. And yes, "flickr" got it right, all right.

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

That is a seriously gorgeous image. As others have said, great composition and like all such images, one can imagine a story. My first thought was 'I'm sure there must be an Ent there.' And yes, I do like The Hobbit. 
A well deserved POTW, congratulations.
Be well, stay safe.

Sincere thanks to everyone who has commented and liked this image. I was lucky to be in this place on the right day, when there was a touch of mist and rain to bring out the beauty in this woodland. I would highly recommend a visit to this place for anyone within striking distance (it's near Grindleford in the Derbyshire Peak District), it is a unique and stunning landscape, great for just a walk, but fantastic if you are remotely interested in photography.
Best regards
