Trees Steemitphotochallenge #32

Hi,

really trees it is a great theme, they support our world but us we forget them many times. Everyone, it must have a preferred tree, and the mine preferred tree it is one of this that remember you that the human are small and our personal time on this earth it is limited. This is a Quercus suber (Cork oak)  in the place where my mother was born. This tree is placed in a place where we used to play when we were children and, also when my mother was a child.  I am not sure but with this size, probably this "Sobreira" (The name in the Galician language), could be more than 300 years old.

The image is only from the top because the space to take a good picture it is not enough wide. Sadly, this ancient tree it is surrounded by eucalyptus, which destroy our landscapes in the present days.
