This big oak finally went down, luckily away from my shack during the recent hurricane. The broad but shallow root system was saturated with rain water followed by the constant strain of wind at the top, eventually blowing it over, taking with it the electric and OMG, the internet cable!

Intense! What a shot!! Talk about a movement of energy my Friend...so glad you made it through the event unscathed. The tree/root system look huge. I can't imagine what that would weigh....amazing!!

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
WOW! That was a big one to go over. I'm always amazed at how tall a tree stands and how little the root system is. Awesome shot.

The most precious jewel you'll ever have around your neck are the arms of your children♥
Dan - Hopefully, no one was hurt by the falling tree - it is a big 'un. By now, the Internet service is back up and running, (or you are living at the local coffee shop that offers free wi-fi). Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
This is a great shot and entry for the contest - I see this same type of thing after tornadoes and it's always awe inducing.

Excellent capture and textures, that's scary to have big of a tree come down. Now is this in your yard Dan? I never knew that Oaks have shallow roots

That's one humongous tree! Must have taken a giant to bring it down. Nature is beautiful, but also mighty. Good luck, Dan!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Hope you and yours are okay!! Wow! Takes some strong wind to pull out a root system like that!!
