The name of this tree is Kitschy Hornbeam. The lifespan of this species is about 350 years, and this tree already exceeds 700 and is the only one in the Balkans and one of very few left in the world. The Hornbeam is also called the Tree of Life.It is located in near the village Turia in Bulgaria. I have been taken these picture during 4 different years. I wanted to capture the tree during the different seaasons. I also wanted to get different points of view, and compositions to show the beauty of this magnificent tree.
