There is something always comforting about sitting under a large tree. Besides the shade it provides, it has the image and feel of a mother protecting her child.

Great image! Excellent composition - love the thin sliver of water that seems to "cool" the scene. lgnelson · 2012-07-05: 11:31

You know, I think trees are some of the best things on earth! They give us so much and expect very little in return. I also believe they have a type of consciousness that goes far beyond what we can imagine. Weird, huh? A lovely and thoughtful post with a gorgeous image! lookagain · 2012-07-05: 15:03
