Description
The power of a tree growing on sandstone. On my hikes in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, I particularly like the remote places where old trees meet sandstone. It seems to me that wood and sandstone form a very special bond with each other. Over a long period of time, a tree grows on the hard rock and finds its way into the soil.
In the Affensteine area there is such a place. When walking on the Upper Terrace Trail, only a narrow path winds its way between the rocks and the steep precipice. Nevertheless, there are some trees that have found a foothold here. Their branched, powerful tree roots are partly above the ground and are clearly visible.
In my opinion, the beauty of nature often reveals itself in details that seem inconspicuous at first glance and have a very special magic at second glance. Structures that bear witness to the growth of a tree fascinate me very much. But I also like to incorporate the eroded surface of sandstone into my photos.
I am inspired by the beauty of old trees, their strong roots and enchanting structures of the wood. In my opinion, trees stand as symbols for the traces of time, for strength and the cycle of life in nature.
