70岁老人种“爱心”树林怀念亡妻

A devoted husband spent years creating this touching heart-shaped meadow as a tribute to his late wife. Farmer Winston Howes planted the oak saplings after his wife Janet died suddenly 17 years ago.

一位忠贞的丈夫花费数年，拼成了这个巨大的指向他已故爱妻故乡的爱心。农场主温斯顿-霍维斯在妻子珍妮特17年前突然离世后，他就开始种植橡树。

The 70-year-old laid out the fledgling trees in a six-acre field but left a perfect heart shape in the middle - with the point facing in the direction of her childhood home.

这位七十岁的老人在6英亩的农场中种满橡树，中间留下了一个巨大的爱心形状，心尖直指向了妻子的故乡。

The labour of love has now blossomed into a mature meadow - a peaceful oasis where Winston can sit and remember his wife of 33 years.

这份爱的付出已经变成了丛林，老人现在可以在这里坐着安静地追思陪伴了自己33年的妻子。

His meadow cannot be seen from the road and has remained a family secret until a hot air balloonist took this photograph from the air.

他的丛林在路边并不能被发现，直到有人在热气球上拍照，这个秘密才公布于众。

He said: "I came up with the idea of creating a heart in the clearing of the field after Janet died. I thought it was a great idea - it was a flash on inspiration - and I planted several thousand oak trees.”
