Brinken Wood, New Forest

[NightHawk]

This fir tree in the Brinken Wood area of the New Forest has a very interesting profile.

It's almost like it's being blown by a cross-wind from the right, but in actual fact there are no branches at all on that side of the tree.  And it was a perfectly still day at the time I took this photo anyway.

Not sure exactly what has happened here

How strange, Laurie. And just look at that sky, you can tell that we are in the middle of a heatwave

I actually took that photo in January 2012 Eric.

I came across it whilst going through my library and thought it would be appropriate to show it here.

Still, not bad weather for that time of year though

That just goes to show that you can convince oneself of anything, Laurie
