A weatherbeaten tree on a winding, single-track road over the hills past many a lonely croft and farm on the isle of Islay. The wind and weather have battered that tree over the years but not beaten it into submission.

Larry, I’m a wee bit confused – when I went to check the features a few minutes ago this photo is no longer there. Are the features only up for a few hours at time? Cheers, K

Lovely shot Kasia. It would take more than hard wind, weather and life to get the better of a Scottish tree!!!!!
Stuart, thank you! Aye, the trees fair have to be tough:-)

That is one tough tree, aye? It will probably still be standing after we have gone back to dust! :)
Vicki, you are so right there. It looks wee and frail but is really a tough survivor. Like the Scots – wherever they or their genes may be :-)
