A very large Hornbeam tree with yellow catkins against a leaden sky. There was a weak sunlight from the other direction giving the yellow a chance to shine.
Hornbeam cries Spring!
Sky says, not yet!
Holmfirth car park has a few of these trees and they look beautiful with their yellow catkins.

Twisted oak trunk covered in Mossley and lichen.
Branches bent round at sharp angles.
An oak trunk leaning.
A carpet of acorns.
More tree photos; sessile oaks cling to the valley sides, twisted and misshapen. Acorns falling as I walk, carpeting the woodland floor. A secret place located on the edge of the peak district. #trees #treesUK #wildlife #naturephotography #oaktrees
A large Yew tree standing in an old graveyard casting its shadow on the grass beneath.
A Yew for you!
They can live for 1,500 - 3000 years!
A symbol of death and resurrection for the ancient Celts. Others thought they purified the soil where plague victims were buried.
The Druids thought them sacred. #TreesUK
Poisonous with no known antidote!
Beautiful and powerful tree.

Tree with pale green seed heads that look like blossom.
My plant identifier says this is a relatively rare Wych elm. Could it be? #treesUK
