Even the Big Trees Fall Eventually

During a walk through the New Forest, I came across this fallen tree. When a large tree falls, it is always somewhat surprising because the scale of large trees gives them an impression of imperviousness. Of course, they will all fall eventually. When they do, it seems like it is a big shock. The roots are still bound tight with earth and standing beside this gives you an impression of the scale. I stuck myself in there just for reference!
