Gale In Liverpool

February 12, 2018

Walking throught Wavertree Park last month I saw this giant that had fallen victim to the gale of the previous week. The demise of this tree enabled me to photograph parts I wouldn’t normally be able to access; the last time I climbed a tree was around 50 years ago!
