European Beech Tree, Laudholm Farms, Wells, Maine, November 2025 — The big old beech in the yard at Laudholm Farms was probably planted soon after the land was first cleared for farming in the early days of settlement in Wells. It is a magnificent tree even in fall when the leaves have turned, and the sunlight leaks in right to the many branching trunk. Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 at 24mm equivalent. Auto.
