Peace is a journey
Of a thousand miles
And it must be taken
One step at a time.
I was back in Grunewald again to walk Bobby a few days ago and there are so many fallen / chopped down trees, quite literally littering the forest floor, which was annoying and a little depressing to see. But that said, some of the older carcasses so to speak, were already becoming somewhat consumed by moss and fungi, this tree was no exemption. A falling for one is a growth opportunity for another and so nature continues and reclaims as it does.
Albeit this is on a spectacularly smaller scale, I cannot help think of places like New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and Pripyat after Chernobyl, ought to be a sobering reminder that the only true god like deity that exists is Mother Nature / Gaia. That which always, fights back, wins out and reclaims. Every single time!
I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)
I came across this scene a couple of years ago and visited several times before capturing anything of note. In autumn and winter the canopy opens up too much and the scene becomes too bright so when in its green display in August it works reasonably well. I like the elements of our activity with these giant millstones slowly being reclaimed back to nature.
Gardens by the Bay is a nature park spanning on reclaimed land.
It is located in the Central Region of Singapore.
Gardens by the Bay is a tropical garden designed to celebrate the plants of the tropics
In January 2006, Gardens by the Bay began an international master plan design competition to get world-class ideas for the Gardens. The competition attracted more than 70 entries sent by 170 firms, from over 24 countries, including 35 from Singapore. Grant Associates and Gustafson Porter, both from UK, were awarded the master plan design for the Bay South and East Gardens in September 2006.
Bay East Garden is 32 hectares (79 acres) in size and it has a 2-kilometre (1.2 mi) promenade frontage bordering the Marina Reservoir. An interim park was developed at Bay East Garden in support of the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics. It is designed as a series of large tropical leaf-shaped gardens, each with its own specific landscaping design, character and theme.
Supertrees are uniquely designed vertical gardens ranging from 25 to 50 meters in height (82 to 164 feet), with emphasis placed on the vertical display of tropical flowering climbers, epiphytes and ferns.
Supertrees perform a multitude of functions, which include planting, shading and working as environmental engines for the gardens. They are home to enclaves of unique and exotic ferns, vines, orchids and also a vast collection of bromeliads such as Tillandsia, amongst other plants.

We sometimes go hiking at nearby Rancho San Antonio in Cupertino, California. On the way there is a farm called Deer Hollow Farm. I spotted these cattle/pig stairs, used to load the animals onto wagons/trucks in the old days. Nature is slowly reclaiming the contraption.

If mankind perished utterly;
And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.”

I've been hunting around over several visits looking for composition in this area. The light initially was too hash, but after the sun dipped behind cloud it produced a nice bit of reflected light. Used the rock as interest surrounded by the heather & being reclaimed to the land.
Thanks for looking.
Everything that comes from this earth will eventually go back to it.
Nature-reclaimed building found at HoPe at Syn Isles
I shall let Nature reclaim me, this heart will beat once more with the strength of her in me..
Many Thankyou's for browsing at my work, I am so appreciative of comments and awards given to me. Nothing is wasted.
LS&I's 7 Tilden is chugging upgrade between Palmer Line Junction and Eagle Mills Junction with 60 loads from Tilden Mine.
In the background is the long dormant Tracy Mine. Opened in the early 1950s and closed in the early 1970s, LS&I built a new right of way (the one the train is on) to access the underground mine via two connection tracks, one of which swung off just ahead of the lead locomotive.
Like so many other dead mines in the area, Mother Nature is slowly reclaiming what it can of the property.
An Grianan of Aileach Ring Fort, Burt, Inishowen, County Donegal, Ireland
First constructed around 1700 BC (probably with earthen walls) by the Tuatha de Danann. An Grianan Ring Fort was once a seat of power were the ‘O'Neill Kings’ reigned from for over 700 years. An Grianan of Aileach is a famous monument in Inishowen & easily one of the greatest in all Ireland.
Strategically built along Donegal's coast on a hilltop 800 feet above sea level the view, from Grianan Fort overlooks three neighbouring counties. Legend states that the giants of Inishowen (Princes of Aileach) are lying sleeping under this hill but when a hidden sacred sword is removed from this ring fort, they will return to life reclaiming their ancient lands.....

I was amazed to stumble across half a block of mostly hidden abandoned row houses in the middle of north Detroit. The surrounding blocks are mostly empty now. Just vacant overgrown lots and dark empty buildings.
First farmed over 4000 years ago by bronze age settlers, much of Bodmin Moor’s prehistoric and medieval past remains untouched by the passing of the centuries. The Moor is dominated by dramatic granite tors which tower over the sweeping expanses of open moorland. Marshes and bogs on the high moor drain into shallow moorland valleys, before the rivers cross onto the softer shales surrounding the Moor, and carve themselves deep river valleys. Historically the landscape of Bodmin Moor has engendered fear and awe, generating folklore and legend. Fact and fiction become one, as tales are passed down the generations.
Minions, the highest village in Cornwall, can be found high up on Bodmin moor in South East Cornwall. The surrounding area offers a wealth of archaeological interest from early Bronze Age onwards. Tin and copper mining took place here until early in the last century. Although the area has now been returned to nature, with its industrial past slowly succumbing to slow decay and overgrowth, many of the pump houses and spoil tips can still be seen.
This old BMW was abandoned in Bayhurst Wood many years ago and has now been almost reclaimed by nature.

Two of the tug boats owned by Cory, moored at their depot in Charlton and seen from across the river in Silvertown. The grey wall behind belongs to a Sainsbury's supermarket distribution centre.
The tugs tow waste materials along the river in massive barges to a recycling plant in Belvedere.
Annesley All Saints or "Old Church" dates to 1356. It was abandoned in 1874 after the focus of the community shifted eastwards towards a new coal mine. A new church was consecrated closer to the miner's houses and this one fell into ruin. There are great views of the ruins of Annesley hall, which stand on private land, from the Churchyard. Annesley, Nottinghamshire, UK.
This image is from an evening spent at Covehithe in suffolk, I waited for almost 2 hours for the tide to come in and surround this second world war pill box.
