Trees

Our village is full of old trees but the numbers are diminishing as people continue to find reasons to chop them down. Quite apart from the environmental impact, in my opinion getting rid of trees has a detrimental impact on the urban landscape.

But for now I can still see lots of tall trees whichever of my windows I look out of. The picture is of the next door birch tree (I've played around with it a bit on Photoshop). This tree is a bit of a pain when it sheds its leaves in the autumn but otherwise it is a pleasure to look at.
