same stump, different angle

I still don't know how it got there.

[Call me Joe]

Love & fav!-- was gonna ask the same Q:)

[Graeme Stevens]

@joemuli Thank you very much - it does seem like a strange place for a tree stump to be...as per yesterdays shot, I'm stumped ;)

[Larry L]

most excellent!

[Graeme Stevens]

@lsquared Thank you very much :)

[Lisa Poland]

Fabulous! FAV!

[Graeme Stevens]

@homeschoolmom Thank you very much :)

[Sally Ings]

Another interesting capture of the stump. Surely there's an interesting story behind it being here.

[Jerome]

Masterly in conception and brilliant in presentation.
A magical place and a magical picture.

[Graeme Stevens]

@jerome Thank you very much, far too kind :)
@salza I would hope so - I'd be disappointed if there wasn't...

[HTGT]

Global warming? Makes a fab image anyhow. Any more gifts of snapper & venison recently...?

[Katrina]

Cool. Again. I think I like this angle more than yesterday's.

[Helen Sanderson]

It is a great image - I love the black sand - you use it so well.

[Graeme Stevens]

@hrs Thank you very much - the trouble with black sand in summer is that gets a little toasty...
@katrinanz Thank you kindly - I meant to post them the other way around...I think I prefer yesterdays for being more imposing but todays for being more "real"...if that makes any sense at all

[Graeme Stevens]

@cottiac Hmmm...not today...and thank you kindly

[Suse♡]

fav

[Graeme Stevens]

@susale Thank you very much :)

[Rachel]

Stunning and instant FAV! Love it in B&W.

[Scott Houston]

You can be certain that at some point in the process, it involved a farmer and a chainsaw. You being in NZ and all. But the tree did not die in vain.

[Jane Armstrong]

Love both shots. Fantastic black and whites (as always)!

[Sebastian Gritt]

Just proves how strong a b&w process can be when the temptation may have been to have a lovely blue sky etc. Just perfect.

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

It got there when you weren't looking ;-)
Great stump.

[Jennifer]

Great b/w. Like this angle

[Graeme Stevens]

@jesperani Thank you very much :)
@overalvandaan Honestly, you turn your back for one minute and...stumps!
@365projectorgsebgritt Thank you very much - to be honest there was never the slightest temptation to go with a blue sky but I know where you're coming from...
@motherjane Thank you very much indeed :)
@scotthouston It was probably obscuring someone's view...
@rachelpeony Thank you very much :)

[tony gig]

Fabulous...

[Graeme Stevens]

@tonygig Thank you very much :)

[Marnie]

That's quite some stump. Maybe has alien origins.

[Graeme Stevens]

@golftragic Now you sound like L Ron Hubbard ;)

[Marnie]

@graemestevens Wash your mouth out. I was thinking more Day of the Triffids.

[Tracy]

love, amazing, fantastic #myfavshotofyours, I would hang this on my wall. FAV :)

[Graeme Stevens]
