The two "eyes" are emphasized very well by your comp. Norma.  The many spots of red are a great reason to not convert to b&w.  Well seen and presented.

Norma, the character of this old log is great. I like how the two knots interact in the frame. I find myself wanting to see a little more space on the bottom, and a little less on top.

Beautiful lines in this image, Norma, and the remains of the red add a nice little highlight.
