#ThickTrunkTuesday Sitka Spruce snag #MeerMittwoch #PNW #VancouverIsland #Ucluelet #GeorgeFraserIslands #Amphitrite point. Site of the #PassOfMelfort #Shipwreck - in a weird coincidence, the actual Pass of Melfort is only a few miles from home. 2x Melforts ca. 4,500 miles apart

A dead Sitka spruce tree in silhouette, a blue sky with dappled clouds behind, the sun's globe bright in the top of the frame behind a patch of cloud. The sea is a beautiful deep blue, the foreground grassy, tree-covered islands and shore in the middle distance

#ThickTrunkTuesday Strong vibes of #KateBush - Cloubusting artwork for me. #PNW #VancouverIsland #Flotsam #Trees #TreesOfMastodon

A very large tree stranded on a beach. A man sits on top of the root ball, amongst the sea washed structural roots. Strongly sunlit, with sea and cloudy sky behind, the image is not quite a silhouette. The man holds a phone in front of him - a quick glance might suggest a stiff middle finger salute...

#thickTrunkTuesday framing this beautiful view of Novi Sad. My favorite spot there. The whole city and Danube can be seen from this secluded wall.

A slightly high-angle, eye-level, portrait orientation photo captures a view over a waist-high brick wall bottom and center, and a taller wall in the right side of the photo, part of the Petrovaradin Fortress in Novi Sad, through tree branches and alongside a tree trunk on the left side, framing the photo, towards the Danube River at sunset. The sun, partially obscured by the leaves of the tree, casts a warm glow over the scene. The brick wall is in the midground, with some graffiti visible on the wall to the right. Beyond it, the wide Danube River stretches across the frame, with an old bridge pylon in the middle of the river, and the faint outline of Novi Sad on the far bank. The sky above the horizon is bright with the setting sun.

For #thickTrunkTuesday - a rather hefty specimen somewhere near the #ForestOfDean, #Gloucestershire. (Is it pushing the wall over, or holding it up? Both, probably...)
Large, scaly-barked deciduous tree, trunk warty and lumpen, growing on raised ground at the top of an old stone wall at the side of a narrow country lane. The wall is bowed out and seemingly ready to collapse - but perhaps the tree's roots are holding it together?

Gnarly old bigleafed maple from yesterday’s hike for .

Hiker with long hair stops to look at the gnarled base of an old maple tree, roots twisting to the ground and two fat, mossy trunks rising skyward. It’s along a dirt trail in a verdant green forest.

A thick tree trunk with colorful Lego pieces lying nearby. A thick shadow falls from the tree trunk. Houses and cars are visible behind it.

A mule deer laying down in the forest.  He is well camouflaged against the trees.

#ThickTrunkTuesday ! (TIL it exists!)
(the hashtag not the tree) 😁
A thick forking beech tree trunk - I took this pic because liked the shadow cast by the branches.

Probably wouldn't qualify as a thick trunk for , but anyway, this battered pine tree, its northern face already dry and leafless, still holding on.

A weathered tree with gnarled and twisted branches, half of it appears to be dead with its bark stripped away, revealing smooth bleached wood underneath. The tree sits on a hillside slope covered with dry grass, small shrubs and scattered rocks. In the background, multiple layers of mountains recede into the distance among a hazy atmosphere, the furthest peaks still covered in snow.
