This tranquil area of ancient pasture & tree-lined paths was bequeathed to the Abbey that was previously on the site in the14th Century & is open daily to the general public unlike the Colleges grounds.
It borders on the River Isis & tributaries from the Cherwell and makes for a lovely stroll.
Following a pathway besides the latter, I was fascinated by this tree of many con-joined trunks & thought it would make an interesting Monochrome, due to the dappled light....jpg)
Then, took a random shot looking up into the leaf canopy.
It wasn't till I was home, that I discovered I'd captured two Rainbow Orbs...

Reminds us of the banyon tree in Lahaina Maui...love black & white shots!
The shape of the trunk is well demonstrated in B&W but you would have lost your orbs if you had mono-ed the lower one.
The tree looks really nice in mono, but the orbs are lovely!
nice shots!
Tree trunks can tell whole stories. One only has to look for them.
That is a lovely tree. Made extra special with the orbs..
