WC #547 - Bark

Gallery: Weekly ChallengePosted August 13, 2012122 views7 comments

The many trees that have had their demise in Yellowstone's mud flats gave me this image. Used posterization filter to bring out the line and textures that drew me to take the photo. Taken with Canon 7D, 100=400 IS lens. Comments welcomed.

Hope you enjoy.

Great textures & interest with all those gnarly twists & turns Patricia.
Would love to see it large so I could lost in there

Well done

Wonderful lines and texture in this old gnarled tree. Must have been a very unusual looking tree when growing, with all those weird branch angles. Nice find and presentation, Patricia.

Nature's sculpture. Ain't it grand?

Well seen and captured.

That is really gnarly Patricia. Sorry for the bad pun. It is a neat old tree with really crazy twists and turns.

The textures and swirls are terrific...I think I'm getting dizzy trying to follow all the moving lines.

This is beautiful. You've done a great job bringing out the fine texture.
