Description
A shot from last autumn, taken near EckernfΓΆrde/Germany. These beech-trees stand on the top ridge of an old cliff and had to develop extra-strong roots in order not to be blown down the cliff.Related content

Going down the cliff is indeed pretty tricky. So rather keep to the paths!

Nice shot, I like it when roots stick out the side of a hill.

Thank you very much for all your lovely comments and the favs. Yes, I love such hills too. Unfortunately there are none here in surroundings.

This is an imaginative reaction, I guess, but I stay bewildered: what do you mean by "ents"?

Many thanks for the info. I hardly dare admit that I am no Tolkien fan, but things are as they are, I am afraid.

Well, as some say, we learn through the whole life
It's not a shame not to know some things, so don't worry
Now you know what I was talking about

Many thanks again. And anyway: we do not know about most things.

Great photo...I love these trees, and my street is named after them. However, the trees lining my street are black honey locust...go figure.

Great you like the shot. Yes, beech-trees are wonderful trees!
Many thanks for your good wishes. Have a good Easter time, too! I am still pretty shaky, but we shall see ...

Heh, this is a common sight in the nearest mountain range (Vitosha , Bulgaria). I have always loved the way it goes: Trees holding on to the soil, and in this way, preventing the soil from erosion.

Yes, it is a beautiful sight. Less common in Schleswig-Holstein or even more so here in the Netherlands, however, as the countryside is mainly flat.
