Description
The legend of the harp tree...When I found this harp-shaped tree in a secluded part of the forest I noticed that the rest of the trees seemed to be leaning in towards it ...as if they were listening intently to its music.
Location:
A magical part of the Schwarzwald (Black Forest) region of the Naturpark Saar-HunsrΓΌck in the south west of Germany.

Lithuanian painter and musician M.K.Δiurlionis has done a painting in his early years named "The music of the forest" where he depicts a harp made from trees and the hand of wind playing it. Here's the link to it:

Absolutely amazing. So whimsical. It reminds me of something that you would find in a storybook. I would love to pay the lovely forest a visit.

The one at the front of the picture besides the harp tree and the two next to it seems to be the one most leaning, and it's kinda defined but not obviously if you're not looking. Beautiful, beautiful image. And not only was it a good subject it's well done.

Aren't we all glad nature doesn't charge royalties?

That is too cool. the only thing I've managed to snap a good picture of that was a weird nature scene was a picture of a lone leaf at the very top branch of a tree...I think I like this one better...
