Apologies for the absence, we decided just to take ourselves off for a few weeks (nice to be a free spirit ), sadly did not know the internet would be so non existent, albeit the iPhone was the best if you stood by a transmitter. Anyway, a nice time was had eating and drinking our way with the occasional snap and I mean occasional, as this wasn't a photo trip, or a working one.
Taken at a good friends location who I had not seen for some time, so it was great to be given the opportunity to try his new site, but more importantly, to have a great craic with him too. Personally I'm not fussed about the tail, for me it's the look/expression. Yes the trees are this colour, it's a living one in the forest, the horizontal part is it's roots, this is approximately 150-170 years old, the good old Scott's pine...
