Yes, this is another photo taken at Coombe Country Park yesterday. It amazes me that I have found trees here at Coombe that so remind me of my home State of California, USA. There is a mini forest of Redwood Trees as well as this Monterey Cypress on the left. The Oak tree to the right is the tree I am photographing on a regular basis (from a different angle).

Just been out to photograph my next thatched roof house for tomorrow. Have a good day!

The Montery Cpress looks like a gorgeous tree--lots of fine detail.

WOW ! Great picture !
I love the look of these, so Majestic and enigmatic at once. Gorgeous tree silhouettes today - lovely M choice! (Look forward to new thatched sights:)
What a MAGNIFICENT tree. I love the outline effect.

Brilliant shot!
I kinda like the tree to the right.
two truly beautiful trees
I like the huge big trees you have here.
They are just fantastic!
One day I want to go for a nice walk around Trent Park again..... One of many nice places I have been to.
Great picture of the trees. I love the shape of the oak especially in Winter when there are no leaves to hide its branches.
I love this tree! I thought it looked a lot like the macrocarpa trees that grown here in New Zealand (which I love to photograph!) and, lo and behold, they are one in the same according to wikepedia!

Lovely tree silhouettes.This looks like a very peaceful place to walk and relax.
This pair is exceptional. Love the image.
Funny you should mention it - at first I thought you had been on a visit to Cali! Great photo of the trees!
beautiful trees..."your" tree is my favorite one though...isn't it nice when we get little reminders of "back home" :)
Thanks again for taking the time to leave a comment. I am glad you like this photo.
Stefan - I do too. First time I have seen it from this angle...area I was standing in has just been opened to public.
Gunn - I have always wanted to visit Trent Park...only about an hour from here, if that. On the list!
BettyL - That's right :). I have seen that picture. Nothing like ocean as a backdrop, right!
Tanya - Those reminders really lift my spirits, especially the chocolate ones :).
Cheers!
That is a gorgeous shot, looks like a painting!

I know what you mean here- I was in Monterey last week and there were 2 trees by the harbour that looked like this!
Cheers Rose :).
Chrissy - You were!!!! Fantastic. Hope you had good weather and a brilliant trip. I'm from the LA area.
What beautiful shapes!
That's interesting to see a cypress and an oak-looking tree side by side, especially so far from California. This is a beautiful shot. Thanks for checking my M out.
Even though they're so different they make a great pair LOL
Thank again you three (JM, Linnea, Grace) for joining in. Soon that big oak will have leaves on it and I can't wait to see how that will look.
