Photographer’s Note
This big tree on the road which goes down to the little harbour of Sigri is really amazing, attracting birds and flowers around him. It reminds me this beautiful song of Alkinoos Ioannidis...
The tree is a Almond-leaved Pear (Pyrus spinosa).
You can listern the song here
Μεγάλο δέντρο ο στεναγμός, μεγάλη κι η σκιά του
απλώνει ρίζες στην ψυχή, στο σώμα τα κλαδιά του
Μα όπως ανοίγει ένα πουλί φτερούγα στον αέρα
το δέντρο γίνεται γιορτή και φτερουγίζει η μέρα
…
Αυτός ο κόσμος που αλλάζει
πως σου μοιάζει, πως σου μοιάζει
Αυτός ο κόσμος που αλλάζει
με τρομάζει, με τρομάζει …
Στίχοι & Μουσική: Αλκίνοος Ιωαννίδης
---------------------------------------------------------
Big tree the sigh, big and its shadow
spreads its roots into the soul and its branches to the body
But as a bird opens its wings on the air
the tree becomes a feast and the day flaps
…
This world that changes
how much does it resemble you, how much does it resemble you
This world that changes
scares me, scares me …
Lyrics & Music: Alkinoos Ioannidis
----------------
Un grand arbre, le soupir, grand et son ombre
propage ses racines dans l'âme et ses branches dans le corps
Mais comme un oiseau ouvre ses ailes dans l'air
l'arbre devient une fête et le jour s’illumine
…
Ce monde qui change
Combien te ressemble-t-il, combien te ressemble-t-il
Ce monde qui change
me fait peur, me fait peur …

A great song by Alkinoos and a beautiful capture of the big tree. Especially in some places lone trees like that are a whole micro world of diverse fauna and flora
Have a good day and TFs

Bonjour Catherine,
très simple et tellement naturelle.
J'aime ces couleurs que tu as su conservées intactes.
Une prise très nette d'un endroit où j'aimerais me retrouver pour profiter en plus de la vue, des senteurs.
Amitié.
Daniel.
