Dark Hedges is this mysterious avenue of county road in Northern Ireland. It made fame in the current television series Game of Thrones.  The 150 beach trees were planted by James Stuart in the 18th Century.. Nice work Dave, Mom and her little boy and the car in the distance add to the allure of this image.
