Trunk 11

This month I am going to be posting all things trees. This week it will be the trunks - I often see things in the patterns and gnarls on tree trunks - what can you see?

Annie I am your get pushed partner this week. Since you are photographing trees this month, I wondered if you've presented an image of a tree giving it an Orton effect. There are a number of descriptions and tutorials on this style that can be found by googling "orton effect".
