Wonderful image, I like the composition.

Thanks very much John, glad you like it.

All the best, Doug

good!
More than 30 years ago I photocopied a small booklet of forestry English. (Long before something like Google was even thought of...) Just looked up the word hold-over tree ;-)

Many thanks Markus. Over the past three months this type clearing has been carried out over a large area of the forest. Some areas have been completely cleared of trees in an attempt, so I am told, to stop the spread of a disease that is affecting the Larch.

All the best, Doug

Most most beautiful, have a peaceful sunny month:)

Thanks very much Annemarie, glad you like it.

All the best, Doug

Es fallen immer mehr Nadelbäume, Doug.
In unserer Region sind Tausende und Abertausende wegen des Klimawandels und des Borkenkäfers gefällt.
Freundliche Grüße und einen angenehmen Abend

We also have problems here Erich but it seems to be a disease affecting the trees. Many are being felled to try and stop the spread.

Enjoy your week, Doug

I hope they will overlie, Doug !

In other parts of the forest doing this this type of clearing has certainly resulted in a good covering trees such a birch within a few years.

All the best, Doug

En effet, une sévère sélection... quelquefois c'est une question de survie !
Bonne soirée Doug.

Thanks for your visit Jocelyne, much appreciated. Such previous clearing has resulted in a good covering of trees such as birch in other parts of the forest.

All the best, Doug

thank you for the information!

Beautiful composition Doug.
Peaceful week ahead.

Il faut espérer qu'ils vont en remettre des plus jeunes ( on sait que les vieux sont vidé de l'intérieur ) beau partage
