Description Just a row of old beeches trees standing by themselves. Was there ever a lane? Hard to say. But they certainly are standing out as monumental giants along this forest path.

Taken near Hilversum/The Netherlands

These were planted by someone to mark a boundary or way, the would never grow like that naturally. Lovely picture

Thanks. People in the 18th and 19th centuries had a great way of planting beech-tree lanes in their parks. They left a wonderful heritage for us!

I agree fully, they have given us a wonderful legacy which they themselves knew they would never see. A wonderfully unselfish humanitarian act

Great photo. Would you mind if I used a couple of yours in photomanips (of horses), giving you credit on the image and off of it, of course? I could post them here to show you too.

If you go on like that, I really need an "automatically add all deviations of this deviant to my favs"-button!

Beautiful! I love the colours and how the light goes across and you have the tree shadows, I would love to live in the Netherlands, they have beautiful forests, I hope I get to go there and see them someday

Yes, I would think you would love our forest here around Hilversum, even if they are not as big as you might imagine. Many thanks for your lovely coment.
