I took this photo during one of my walks through Brompton Cemetery in London. I’ll leave it up to the individual viewer to interpret close since it may have different interpretations for each person.

For me, it s like the tree is watching the graves & taking care about all the souls..wonderful photo TBM! 🙂
I see that. Sometimes when I see this tree it looks like it is hugging them. It always gives me a peaceful feeling. Thanks!
I feel the same way about this tree 🙂 Hugs
Nice choice for this challenge, TBM. And you ping the challenge back to us to interpret it for ourselves–clever you! 😉
🙂 I think most images can be interpreted a million ways.
Very true!
Love your entry.
Thank you.
What a magnificent looking tree… I was curious about your 50 year project. Kudos and best wishes on your effort! 😉
Thanks for the well wishes…I’ll need it. I’m curious to see how far I will get. That’s the fun part.
Good point of view…
Thanks Emma.
what an incredible Guardian tree!
I bet it could tell some wonderful stories.
Wow, what a beautiful interpretation of the theme….love the shot, and the entire post. Thank you so much for sharing 🙂

Thanks Anne. I’m really enjoying all of the different interpretations on the blogs this week. One word means so many different things to people.
How gorgeous… love all the greenery and the tree
It is one of my favorite parts of the day, walking through here with my buddy Miles.
I see the tree enveloping the graves in protection…lovely image
I always feel safer when I’m near this tree. Nature can heal the soul. Thanks Jo.
This is so beautiful!!! 🙂
Thanks Zelmare.
It’s my habit to visit on graveyards. Your photo is wonderful. I started that “peculiar” hobby when we visited on Père-Lachaise’s cemetery in Paris for the first time. It is a “must place” when in Paris,
Well, always trees do not give shelter on graveyards. My late father lies on this cemetery and look what happened when Downburst passed the cemetery.
Cemetery after storm.
Happy Sunday!
Next time I’m in Paris I will have to visit. Thanks for sharing your post. Nature astounds me.
Nice one! i really must visit Brompton cemetery sometime – I have heard so much about it.
It is so beautiful and there are lots of birds in there. I love walking there during the afternoons and listening to the wind through the trees and hearing the birds chirp.
The tree is keeping them all close. Great photo!
Close and safe…it has such a nice feel.
That would be so eerie at night. But it is quite beautiful during the day. I would love to have an old tree like this to sit under 🙂
It is a beautiful resting spot. They close the cemetery at night, but I’ve wondered what it would be like.
Nice shot. I can see many examples of “close.”
Thanks. I thought it might have personal meanings for each viewer and I didn’t want to force my opinion on anyone. It’s nice to hear what others see and feel.
This picture made me think of Ents – wonder what you’d call an Ent that protects cemeteries?
Lynn 😀
You should see all of the trees in the winter…they really do look like Ents. I love creating stories during my walks. And I’ll have to ponder a name for a protective Ent. Thanks Lynn.
