Veteran Oak

A venerable oak in Nelson County, VA, with a bit of the Blue Ridge in the background. Possibly as old as the Republic. Creamy base Agfa paper imparts an air of antiquity.

I once met a person that got a grant for one year, to travel around the United States and photograph famous trees.
Oaks can be very old. I once stood inside the trunk of an oak that's now over a thousand years old. http://www.bosjokloster.se/park/park_eng.html

This one is possibly older than the Republic.
A fine photographic document.
