					<description><![CDATA[Wonderful wonderful images of some amazing trees, AND I learned a new word in &#039;quotidian&#039; despite having always been quite good at English and a voracious reader too! Well I knew the word, but not necessarily how to drop it into a conversation haha. I adore trees, and climbed them regularly as a child, following my older brother up them. Thank goodness he was there to help me back down! After being away for Christmas and New Year, I spent the entire day yesterday on a train going almost the entire length of the country, trying to return home. A nightmare journey with flooded lines that held us up, but among those floods were some amazing trees standing proud in their recently made lakes. I thankfully got home in one piece!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever.’

 Honestly, I don’t understand how anyone can look at these ancient, evolving, and individualized creations and continue to deny there is a heavenly Creator.

From near or far, I never grow tired admiring the forms, burls, outstretched branches, nooks and crannies of these wishing these old sentinels could share some favorite stories accumulated over the centuries.

Thanks for these photos, and of the mulberry trees and flowers you share with us, GA.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It is impressive how many such old trees there are in Greenwich Park. I love trees like this and have a very special one that is MY tree and over 500 years old. I visit it from time to time and talk to it — something King Charles III is supposed to do...

					<description><![CDATA[I fell in love with an ancient tree last year. It&#039;s down a quiet track and I might not have noticed it had I not gone over to look at the wonderful sunlit view of countryside over the gate next to it. Then I looked up. And up. And up at the enormous tree standing there, its trunk too wide for two of us to get our arms around. A huge and magnificent oak. I am so glad it is still there.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Fine pictures of venerable trees,

Trees communicate to each other, they tell each other when any blite is near or attacks from insects. 

Their roots spread twice as far as their branches grow.

There are millions of us who care deeply for trees and woods, as they gnarl and grow I see that they are reflecting the stupidity of man showing that pain to the earth to we do it in those shapes, knots, twists and curl - and even if sometimes it might seem as thought we are beset by bigger, more devastating problems, just try to imagine a land without trees.

Kipling was right: Surely we sing no little thing, In Oak ,and Ash, and Thorn.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[If you wanted to walk where I live today, you would need to wear a stout pair of wellington boots as it has been raining forever! Nevertheless, it is pleasing to see your portraits of ancient trees in winter sun. I spy a ring necked parakeet in the seventh photo, that most exotic of introduced species that seems to thrive among the ancient trees of the great London parks. They always remind me of warmer climes and sunny days. I&#039;m sure they look forward to the summer too.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Such noble and beautiful trees.  Wonderful photographs, thank you for showing us these great specimens of survival.  It is extraordinary how much presence and atmosphere is conveyed even seeing them just on a small screen, so I can imagine even more so when up close with them.

We must hope they will withstand whatever frightening changes they will face if climate conditions gallop away.]]></description>
