I took a short staycation to the west of Ireland last weekend. We were on the Wild Atlantic At, net stop east coast of USA.

 A lot of the trees in the area are permanently bent from the off shore Atlantic gale winds. I thought these ones just at the pier where we were staying were lovely and worth sharing so I took a few photos.

Lived on the coast of North Devon a long time ago and no tree stood straight!
