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.

Always funky fun with anomalies of nature. For a second I thought it was some kinda weird seamonster with really tall camel humps XD

Lovely lighting.

That is so cool! I've seen a tree that grew in a lighting bolt shape. This one is a lot better! It's amazing how nature works, huh? Nice pic!

that is an AMAZING tree.
and such gorgeous photography.

in the united states, i went to bryce canyon national park in utah, and the trees there were twisted like licorice. when i asked the park ranger why they were like that, they said that no one new why -- another mystery of nature. i think your harp tree is more unique and amazing than my licorice trees.

This is magical, indeed. I think it would be very nice if you had taken this pic on a foggy night, the mysteriousness of it would stand out even a bit more. Great picture...

Wow, I love the picture as well as the comments you made on it. It does resemble a harp indeed, and it's neat how they're leaning. Fantasy, it seems, does exist! Unbelievable!

I love it.
