That Scottish tree is amazing
- Aromasin 2y agoI've visited it in person, and it's utterly bizarre. You emerge from a monoculture pine forest (you can see the straight trees in the background of the photo) into a glade with the most amazing mix of ferns and moss that aren't found anywhere else in the forest. It made me really emotional to be honest. Scotland is beautiful in its own way, but to be frank it's mostly farmed woodland or shep pasture now. The true wilderness is few and far between, so seeing something that old with so much life bubbling around it, so then merge into a barren pine farm, made me deeply upset.
