“The old dead trees are the most fascinating - the countless trees lying in the gullies and up the hills that fell perhaps a century ago, pulling up their roots from the earth as they toppled. The great upheavals left rocks in their huge tentacles and, as they slowly rot, the trunks are home to populations of creatures, from goannas to wild pigs. As grey as tombstones in a cemetery they lie there, having outlasted generations of farmers, as they'll outlast me. In their own way they are as beautiful, more beautiful, than living trees.” WayHomeEarthBeautifulLyingLeftBeautyGenerationsTreeRocksCenturyHugeCreaturesRootsPopulationHillsFascinatingFarmersPigsPullingGreyCemeteryTrunksTombstoneUpheavalFloraTentaclesDead Trees Author:Phillip Adams
