Trees and textures

I liked the texture and highlights the sun made on this section of recently chopped tree. The tree was one of a number round the old farm pond being pruned or chopped down. Sadly the old farm has been replaced by a housing estate, but it is nice that the developers kept the pond and copse of trees in a green area.

Texture and light is great. You could count the rings and see how old it was!!!

@padlock I could, but I gave that up when I retired from teaching or did I? Katahrine

You captured the texture of that stump nicely. I like the brown coloration too.

[Padlock]

Ah ha the thought it still there though to do it!! Go on you know you want to

I would think that is a selling feature..here speaks the former real estate agent. I love the smell of fresh cut trees.

Perfect focus and as you say, the texture is really striking.

I like the rough cut rings and the aged tree bark, great textures Katahrine.

Nice light and texture - can almost smell the sawn timber

[Caren]

Nice textures...love the tones, too.

[Sarah Munnings]

Great shot, beautifully captured...you can almost feel the texture of the wood :)

I was about to say that you can almost feel the texture, but I have been beaten to it!

Neat shot

@bruni It seems to be the tree pruning season. I've seen several lots being pruned over the past few days. Katharine

@monkeykid @gamelee @gillg I was lucky enough to catch the brief bit of sunshine that highlighted the stump. Katharine

@pyrrhula @dolphin @rossevs The texture was very attractive, and I have to say that I couldn't resist touching it. Katharine

@malc Thanks, amazing what can be achieved with a little sunshine. Katharine

[Fisher Family]

@clmiller @pixiemac @purplehaze12 I did feel the texture! Katharine

[Fisher Family]

@padlock I'm resisting the temptation quite well! katharine
