Av man recording an apparently ordinary tree in an otherwise uninteresting woodland happened onto an astonishing scene that will surely stick in his memory for years to come.
The picture appears innocent enough at first: the camera focuses on the leaves softly fluttering in the air and the tree’s twisted branches. The man keeps filming, maybe only hoping for a calm picture of nature. However, something unexpected occurs at precisely 0:18: a shimmering light dances across the bark of the tree.
It is as though the mystical and the commonplace have clashed. The man’s breath catches as his eyes expand. What might this ghostly radiance be? A trick of the light? A secret door leading to another world? Or maybe the tree itself is hiding something from us that we can never know.
