Thought to be near 1000 years old, this massive Live Oak overlooks an old rice field impoundment at Middleton Place. Imagine what it has witnessed.
A sundial placed near the massive tree marks time in a different way.
Or early?
I often pass this line of Live Oak trees when visiting Magnolia Plantation and Gardens and have taken more than a few photographs, none of which really convey the feel of standing under the old trees.
I love the twisted branches, Spanish Moss, and all that green. Last week I stopped as I passed by to soak in the atmosphere and took a few more images.
