Get your head out of the gutter! The #ThickTrunkTuesday hashtag predates Blue Sky! But then, so do the multiple meanings, probably ๐
We like to think we're flooding the ether with more positive messaging ๐ณ๐ฑ

Light filters through old cypress trees and onto a small, shadowed graveyard, whose tombstones are worn and toppling. In the background, standing in the sun, is a weathered old, split log building from the 1800s pioneer days. Another old building, a bit more dilapidated, can be seen in the distance.

Very thick pine tree with a forked trunk in a shady meadow. Some ferns grow out of an old branch cut.

A close up of a knot / recess in an old tree trunks gives the appearance of an eye looking out at you. Or, alternatively, it is a close up of an ent's eye.

A fluffy gray brown animal with short round ears, a black eye make on its white face and a ringed gray and tan tail walks toward the left and heading down along a moss covered rocky slope from which an old scraggly tree trunk is clinging on the left.
He would like to speak to management about making these walkways a little safer.

Some very characterful trees at Westonbirt Arboretum ๐ชพ

#ThickTrunkTuesday
The image depicts a tranquil forest scene where nature meets rugged terrain. In the foreground, a large, weathered granite outcrop dominates the view, featuring a small, natural puddle that reflects the clear blue sky and the surrounding trees. Scattered across the rock are patches of moss and fallen pine needles. The midground shows the rocky terrain sloping upward, where several tall Scots pine trees (Pinus sylvestris) are rooted. Their reddish-orange bark contrasts with the green needles and the grey stone. The background is filled with a dense canopy of evergreens under a bright, cloudless sky. The low angle of the golden hour sunlight creates long, soft shadows and highlights the textures of the bark and stone, giving the entire scene a peaceful, early spring feel.
Trees know when we are close by. ...when you feel good after a walk in the woods, it may be that certain species are bribing you. ๐

A very large tree truck with some moss growth stands out amongst others in a forest. A blue sky appears in the background through green leaves and branches.

This photo captures a serene, atmospheric scene in an ancient forest. In the foreground, a prominent tree trunk with thick, rough, craggy bark stands tall. Behind it, a gnarled, twisted Scots pine bends in an unusual, sinuous shape, adding a sense of mystery or a "fairytale" quality to the scene. The ground is uneven, featuring large, moss-covered boulders and rocks. The moss is a vibrant, lush green, appearing soft and carpet-like against the stone. Scattered across the ground are fallen brown leaves and pine needles, creating a textured, organic floor. The overall mood is tranquil and peaceful. The light appears soft and filtered on this slightly overcast day.
Sometimes I need
only to stand
wherever I am
to be blessed.

a close-ish view of a very old and gnarled oak tree - the main trunk splits quite low down and huge branches exit the edges of the frame. Metal struts are helpin hold it up.
The Allerton Oak for #ThickTrunkTuesday. Thick indeed, it's girth is 18ft.
Fenced in and propped up for support, but so would you be if you were over a thousand years old. #WeekOforOld #AlphabetChallenge
Said to produce over 100,000 acorns per year, I can't vouch for that I haven't counted them

The stump of a recently chopped down tree in a churchyard, orher trees and tge church itself behind under a blue sky an 'X' has been spraypainted on the tree trunk, presumably marking its doom.
Damn, I've spent some pleasant times talking refreshment in the shade of that tree! ๐ฑ๐ณ

Tree fossil
Something historical for #ThickTrunkTuesday #Treefossils ๐ค-often found as petrified wood, form when trees are rapidly buried by sediment (like volcanic ash/mud) &, in low-oxygen conditions, mineralsโlike silicaโreplace organic matter, preserving the tree's structure in 3D.
