A Love Letter To A Darkened Tree

A few years ago, I got ill, pretty ill and I've never fully recovered. As someone who has always been ferociously independent, this sucked ass to say the least. I couldn't leave the house but I needed to have something of my own. So, I started taking photos of this tree from the window. These photos have been taken over the course of a year and a bit - one of them you've seen before but I put it in the collection because it's one of my favourites. Thankfully, now I can leave the house and take pictures of other things! Not as often as I'd like to or as far as I'd like to go, but it's better than it was.
I'd like to dedicate this to my partner, who like this tree, has always been a constant, no matter what has happened over these years but who, unlike this tree, does not have branches. Enough about him because he'll start to think I like him or something.
Anyway, have hope and my wish for all of you is that you have a tree in your life too.

TL;DR - Got sick. Photographed a tree for over a year. Still sick but doing better. Tree is still a tree. Partner is a kind of tree.

08/03/2025 - An evening walk up Carn Ealasaid in Aberdeenshire for sunset. I love the hills round the upper reaches of the River Don. Another good day weather wise for a walk. We made the top just before the sun went to bed. We sat and had our tea. Stayed a bit over an hour and watched the sky darken. Cloudier than I would have liked and moon overhead so didn't get that dark. On the way back the sound of lapwings filled the air. A good trip.

07/03/2025 - Day off work. We headed to the hills. A fine loop up and round Peter Hill on a sunny day in Aberdeenshire. Mild with little wind, just a really nice day for a walk. We plonked down in the heather and had our butties. It was quiet on the hill, I was happy. We saw a lovely adder on the way up enjoying the sun. Good birds too, red kite and snow bunting on top, skylarks everywhere, grey wagtail and dipper on the river near the end. Top day out.

02/03/2025 - Hill of Tillymorgan. Slowly making my way round the Humps of Aberdeenshire after sunset. As usual we made the top a bit early so sat and had our tea and spent an hour chatting and watching the sun slowly go down. It's not a big hill but the view all round of Aberdeenshire from the trigpoint is pretty great.

01/03/2025 - A nice walk up the Buck today, a fine hill on the border between Aberdeenshire and Moray. The sunshine was lovely on the way up. We had our tea on top and watched the sun set. Dark on way back down. Stars were really good. Not much moon and the night sky is Bortle 3 here so nice and dark compared to home.
