Description
That is what we call these beautiful trees. We have a few of these at the end of the garden. Took this shot Saturday.
BTW!!! What was going on at the field was... I think POTATOS. Now there are long lines of Plast and it is usually because they have planted early potatoes. I wonder if they will do that on "our" field too. Still nothing nearby yet.
Have a beautiful week.
We have had grey but also warm weather today and this late afternoon a bit of rain, now the sun is shining far out to the west, where there is a bit clear sky.
Thank you for viewing and commenting :)

Oh, I like this very much! What wonderful character these trees have! The branches go all higgledy-piggledy. The sky behind is perfect too. Beautiful trees and capture!
BRILLIANT!!!!, Love it.
I love this piece, It confirms what I always say to people when they are on a photographic outing, they can look around them and below but also look above at the tree canopy.. especially before spring comes whilst the branches are bare of leaves. You have captured it wonderfully here, it works even more so because the sky is not completely blue. I have some shots with nests in the tree's which completely changes it again as does a completely gray or blue sky.
They are Ents, for sure! Grey most of today here.
When I see trees without their leaves, the branches make me think of rivers and their tributaries, and I see that a little bit here, but since these trees are all knotty, they look more like hair with twists that are turning into dreadlocks, but they haven't become sufficiently matted and so they're just baby dreadlocks. They also look like they're the paintbrushes used to paint interesting clouds and sky patterns. That's how it looks in THIS photo. I love the patterns and the lumpy personality of these trees. I can see how these would be officially called Troll Willows, they have that odd, gnarly look, like troll hair. I also agree with Andrea, they make me think of Ents also.
Fantastic tangle of branches! Wonderful capture! :)
Great capture! Really a bit spooky!
Very cool looking trees. You've captured their nature wonderfully well. : )
I love these twisty branches, and your name for them is perfect! I wouldn't mind them planting anything at all, I like watching things grow.
Wonderful image, Well done
Nice work on this very lovely capture, Helle.
Majestic and very symbolic image. ...The strenght is in the sky . Congratulations Helle .Have a nice week
Superb capture Helle. God bless.
Mandelbrot would be pleased!
Womderful shot and amazing trees! I believe Harry Potter calls them Whomping Willows, LOL!
Wonderful! The patterns they make against the sky is beautiful.
