Wild Pear Tree

Wild Pear Tree

I always get involved in an emotional bond with trees standing alone in nature, away from the forest. I think it's due to this wild pear tree. This tree, which is located just behind the village where I was born and grew up, has a lot of place in my childhood memories. My son, I, my father and my grandfather witnessed the last hundred years of this tree. Last year, a spring storm broke one of the tree's largest branches. It is not clear how long this tree can withstand against the destructive effects of time and nature, but I have been trying to document this tree and the life around it for a long time in order to keep its place in our memories forever.
