Live and let die

I do n`t know the reason why all those trees has been cut down. I suppose because an illness . But by law ( beside a good reason) every tree has to be replaced.
Lives up to the title very well. Almost looks like a row of tombstones. Nice lighting.

A lovely cam and sunny day -- amazing how all the trees have been cut down and as Kathy says -- they do look like a row of tomb stones !!

Zoals je al meldde: ze waren waarschijnlijk ziek. Jammer.

Impressive shot What trees will they replace them with?

Was that one of the tree-lined roads you'd photographed in the past?! I'm glad they'll be replaced! I would imagine that in a low-lying country, the roots of trees are necessary to hold the soil in place!

Regarding yuor note on my photo, it's interesting how differently people approach their art work! Years ago, when I was designing clothes, I, of course, had to plan every detail carefully! Making books, I have to plan that, too, But I loved making mixed-media art that included collage...it couldn't really be planned! A piece of this and a scrap of that! Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't! Doing that now in Photo shop is so much easier! In the picture with the squirrel, I relly don't like the way the squirrel turned out, but I love the background! I can cover the squirrel and use that background again somewhere else! SO MANY choices!

Lovely shot but it is so sad to see that the trees were cut down.

Great leading lines. I wonder what happened to the trees. I hope they are replanted.

Someone is going to be very busy planting saplings soon! I'm glad they have to replace them- the road looks rather bleak with all those sawed-off trees! Still it's a pretty country shot.

Goodness, I thought they were fence posts. so pretty in the countryside!

Interesting, Pyrrhula. There must have been a good reason for cutting down all those trees - could this be some sort of heavy pruning?
January 22nd, 2016  
Maybe those trees were cut down before the law? Whatever, I love the picture. It looks big and quiet. Something I love!

I love your pov, I can only imagine how nice it would have been tree lined!

Een prachtige foto, mooi licht!

It makes a great, if sad, image.

Such a pity, hope you will be posting the new trees when they grow, and hope I'm still around to see the picture!

What a good law. They should do it here to.

I do the same, just planted a new oak in the front to replace the Ash (diseased) that came out this year! A lot of nice nature lines in this with the fields and rows and road!

Looks sad, but you have a good law and with new trees it will look superb
