It's taken a few days to hunt down and scan the negative of this very special tree.

This hornbeam was all that remained of Deville Wood after the Battle of the Somme in 1916.

View attachment 22170

Taken 25 years ago on Kodak Gold 200 with a Canon EOS 500n and 28-80 kit lens. I am assured that the tree is still there.
The back story of this tree is so sadly thought provoking ... sobering. Respectfully, thank you Peter, for taking the time to find and publish this tree.
 
That's a very nice abstract
Thanks Gerard, I had never seen such bark previously. The little red dots would have been nice to capture with a macro lens.
