Oak
This is all that is left of a beautiful oak tree which stood beside our garage. It died last year, and we had to cut it down this spring. It was at least 70 years old (I counted the rings) and probably 70 feet tall. I was sorry to see it go.
This is such a strong picture. Our little town lost so many old trees during Hurricane Katrina. Seems there is some comparison to life in an old tree. Great choice.
