This venerable Oak has graced this field for many centuries. Observed much in its life and even had the field named after it – ” Oak Furlong Meadow “. Survived yet another winter and once again sporting a rich head of leaf (all be it a thinner head as each year goes bye)

oh what a lovely lovely tree, and so glad you have joined us for #TreeSquare, but can I just check is your photograph square? Looks rectangular on my screen

Just back in office now. I have checked my file as it was a cropped image. File size is 1005 x 1005 pixels. But agree it does look strange on WP. Not noticed any enforced trimming before (and I use a slim format for my blog pages) but agree with your initial thought. 🙂 I will post another/different image later today just to see if it occurs again

Isn’t that weird. Most strange what WP has done, but it doesn’t detract from what it is – a lovely shot

Yep and it’s not 1005 x 1005

Did you add it as a gallery or image? If gallery, then I know WP can do strange things sometimes. So frustrating for you though

Image as always. Phone looks even slimmer than monitor, but phone often does.

Might be worth dropping WP a line

Lovely shot. It’s always fascinating to see how they cling on, mixing youth with age.
