Diamond in the rough...

This caught my eye hiking in the mariposa grove in Yosemite...I liked the color contrast from the moss on the tree's bark, and the diamong shaped "tile".

Considering that this must be about the ugliest thumbnail I've seen for a while, I was very pleasantly surprised to see this very appealing abstract. Wonderful textures and details.

Love the little designs and shapes within each section of bark, and the moss adds a great touch.

This one is hard to appreciate when you are looking at the thumbnail. It almost didn't catch my attention, but I'm glad I clicked on it. There is some amazing detail in this image and the larger size is so much fun to look at. Great job!

I have seen scenes like this but the few times I had the tree catch my eye I did not see lines that worked quite to my liking but you found them here. Nice work.
