Forlorn and Forgotten

These sad trees, on the Atlantic Ocean side of Georgia's Jekyll Island, have been uprooted and ravaged by years and years of storms. You can almost hear the trees calling you in a plaintive voice....wanting to tell you their story.

Howdy Tom,

What a neat collection of limbs and trees, makes you wonder the places where they all have come from.

Jack'll do

Very nice indeed Tom. I particularly like #2 & especially # 3 as the larger blue areas of the water and sky seem to accentuate the starkness of the weathered limbs.

Hi Anselina, Craig, and Jack,

Thanks for looking in. All these trees are on National Park Service land and have been left as you see them for years. I stumbled upon this area by accident when out riding a bike on a trail that circles the perimeter of the island.....about a 20 mile ride. It's an old cliche, but pictures don't do this scene justice. To see such an expanse of trees in this shape is amazing.
