#thicktrunktuesday this tree guards the entrance to a bridge over the railway at Culloden Wood.

A large tree with a forked trunk stands at the entrance to a footbridge which is only visible to the viewer as 2 curved walls. To cross the bridge the tree must be stepped around. There is a large boulder at it's base. The tree is mostly in shade while the background is in full sunshine.

Don't do #ThickTrunkTuesday very often but saw this beauty in #HydePark on Sunday and with the wee lady for scale I couldn't resist #photography

A large, ancient tree with a thick, gnarled trunk covered in moss and climbing plants stands in a lush green park. Its wide branches spread outward, filled with vibrant green leaves that filter sunlight, creating dappled light on the ground below. The forest floor is carpeted with ivy, fallen leaves, and small plants. In the background, a person walks along a path near a metal fence, adding a sense of scale to the immense tree. The scene conveys a peaceful, natural atmosphere on a bright day.

In the center, a large tree with branches covered in moss and in the background the tombs and the church of the Campo Santo of Ghent, Belgium.
Campo Santo is a famous Roman Catholic public burial ground in Sint-Amandsberg.

Perfectly purple, Amethyst Deceivers, Laccaria amethystina are looking glorious in the woods! 💜
#FungiFriends #FungiFriday

Vivid purple the Amethyst Deceiver is a gorgeous mushroom however its bright amethyst coloration fades with age and weathering, it becomes difficult to identify, hence the common name "deceiver’.

Mushrooms growing in a fallen tree near Dalston, Cumbria earlier this week.
#fungifriends #fungifriday #fungi #moss #trees #nature #forestfriday #autumn #cumbria #photography #eastcoastkin

A close up of a line of mushrooms growing in a gap in a horizontal tree trunk at ground level.
The fallen trunk is covered in green moss, with some brown bark still visible.
A yellowing leaf showing the signs of Autumn has fallen on the tree trunk.
In the background are branches and leaves from other trees in the forest.
