Majestic Angel Oak - AI+digital artwork by Donna Kennedy-edited in PS and Topaz Studio…
The Angel Oak estimated to be more than 400-500 years old. It is simply known as The Tree in some circles. It stands in a wooded area in John’s Island just outside Charleston in South Carolina. Angel Oak is a live oak which also happens to be the state’s most imposing work of nature, and is a Historical Landmark. With a height of more than 65 feet, Angel Oaks has shaded the area for more than 400 years. The tree currently has a circumference of 25 feet, a diameter spread of 160 feet and covers about 17,100 square feet of ground.
Angel Oak is thought to be one of the oldest trees and living things as a whole east of Mississippi River. While live oaks are known to only grow out and not upwards, the long history of Angel Oak has allowed it to grow both out and up. The tree trunks themselves are so heavy and large that some of them drop to the ground, something which is only universal among the oldest live oaks. Over the centuries, Angels Oak has survived rough weather including earthquakes, hurricanes, floods as well as human interference.
