The Magic Faraway Tree

Sitting quietly at the top hill away from the main thorough fares and adult eyes this sits quietly.

The innately curious little people, who still believe in the magic of the world, may explore further and discover its secret....

For hidden within its bole this sits waiting to be found.....

Who knows where it might lead you if, like Alice in Wonderland, you could shrink yourself down and go through the fairy portal at the base....

This utterly gorgeous tree is part of the children's play area at the top of the Weald and Downland Museum in West Sussex. I took great delight in photographing the dragons there last year, but walked past this totally oblivious. We were back dancing at the annual Tree Dressing event.
