There are times when the word 'wow' seems inadequate. This is one of them. What an outstanding beauty. Superb captures of your experience there. I love the long exposure (and the circumstances around it). Just wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful pictures and description of your experience Paul. There's something special about that feeling of finding yourself in the skirts of a tree, it brings me back to hiding under a table covered in a large cloth as a child! It feels like the grown up version of that, magic in a different way but always magic nonetheless.
Yes! The table and the cloth is such an evocative den memory. We both love a bit of grown up magic too. Nice to hear from you Sin é. Hope all is well in your world.
I was sitting right there with her in the lap of that beautiful mamma.
As I continued to spend time with your pictures, I actually let out a big sigh … if it felt that good to just look at the pictures, I can’t imagine how much better it would be to actually be there 🐝
Incredible. What a feeling that must have been when you walked through that tunnel and found yourself completely embraced by that tree. Soul food is what this is.
I'm with Ralph, WOW! These images and your story are ab-soul-utely beautiful! I'm in awe of "Mother / Elder Trees" like these ... so much so I decided the front and back covers of my latest book "Croneology" would be adorned with them. Thanks so much for sharing, Paul. 💖🙏🌳

Thanks Ralph. The long exposure was one of those moments for sure.

I had to look and look and finally found Anne.

Thank you. It never gets old Jaime. Every single time is a goosebump moment.
That’s a gothic set of images, if I ever saw some.
Yes. Gothic they are 🙏
Nothing but reverence for this magnificent being 👏🏻❤️

Thanks Deborah. Awe is the right word for presence with such beings. Croneology sounds like a fascinating tome.
Hugged by mother nature- now that is living.
Thanks Brenda. She is a beauty.
