Rough exterior.

This is an example of the bark surrounding a banksia tree. Replete with lichen, nooks and crannies galore. Posting as it would fit Don Worths definition of 'exotic' and likewise in b&w. I really like the colour of the lichen but I haven't seen many of his images with colour. I think tomorrow I'll stalk some succulents!

I'm glad to know what this actually is as without that knowledge, it could have been so many different things!

Great in b&w.

[Dione Giorgio]

A great b&w capture of it. It looks so battered that I thought it was a stone walk way. Great textures.

[Joanne Diochon]

Great texture shot. I've only seen one of Worth's coloured images so like you I've been sticking to B&W to try to capture his style. I've had trouble actually finding many of his photos at all.
