yeux menteurs
My name is Caryl. I started this blog on March 24, 2011. I post random photos I find appealing, and anything that comes to mind. I mostly post photos that I find from flickr, but once I run out of daily photo uploads, I tend to reblog alot. I hope you enjoy my blog! Don't be afraid to talk to me, I don't bite, I swear! les yeux
dearscience: Poland’s Mysterious Crooked Forest; Big Pic - Discovery News I saw this on my dash without a source and I was like “this can’t be real” but look omg this is amazing. - In a tiny corner of western Poland a forest of about 400 pine trees grow with a 90 degree bend at the base of their trunks - all bent northward. Surrounded by a larger forest of straight growing pine trees this collection of curved trees, or “Crooked Forest,” is a mystery. Planted around 1930, the trees managed to grow for seven to 10 years before getting held down, in what is understood to have been human mechanical intervention. Though why exactly the original tree farmers wanted so many crooked trees is unknown.

Planted around 1930, the trees managed to grow for seven to 10 years before getting held down, in what is understood to have been human mechanical intervention. Though why exactly the original tree farmers wanted so many crooked trees is unknown.
