Very interesting looking tree

[Hope D Jennings]

@salza It is a Hawthorne. Farmers never cut them down because Fairy's are supposed to live under them. And the farmers believe the fairies get very, very angry if they are disturbed. So you will see them alone in a field like this.

@mzzhope it's as if the roots are the crown of the tree. Regarding fairies, if they do live there you certainly wouldn't want to be disturbing them!

If one squints one can believe those upright weeds under the tree are little fairies or leprechauns.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot.

A landscape that invites the imagination...
