The Oak

This year I'm attempting a 52 project - to take and publish at least one photograph every week.

Actually I'm trying to do two different shots every week, one following a theme set by members of the Talk Photography forum and one of my own choosing.

This week's theme has been Poems so my shot is inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem The Oak, in particular the final stanza.

Live the Life,
    Young and old,
Like you oak,
Bright in spring,
    Living gold;

Summer-rich
    Then; and then
Autumn-changed,
Soberer-hued
    Gold again.

All his leaves
    Fall'n at length,
Look, he stands,
Trunk and bough,
    Naked strength
