Hubby and I had a lovely couple of hours in Trosley woods this morning. It's absolutely beautiful there and I haven't been since the beginning of the year. I was originally taking a photo of the tree stump for my S word and the sweet chestnut, with leaf attached, was sitting on it. I went to pick it up to move it away and had forgotten just how spiky and painful they are to touch - natures protective armour is quite incredible. So I left it there and took a photo of it instead.
The tree stump looks like it would have been an interesting photo but I think the spiky sweet chestnut adds an element of interest to it it would have otherwise been lacking.
@grammyn Thanks! The tree stump was so old and worn it looked like a piece of artwork. Glad I spotted the chestnut sitting there though - painful as it was haha!
@randystreat Still life is a back up word on my September list in case I run out of ideas. I'm beginning to struggle a little bit now we're near the end of the month 😀
