An old oak tree.

This oak was probably around before we were a country. We are privileged to have it in our backyard. Unfortunately it is slowly declining.

Thank you Cyn and PapaJon,
 
The light was fantastic last night. This tree is a subject of many of my photos.

All I can say is "ditto" to all the above comments. What a terrific image also.  Do you think it may be getting over-watered?

Thank you.
The pond is a new addition, but this area was full of springs and a "sink hole". I am sure the water hasn't hurt it any, but it is an oak and they grow slow in any conditions.
