Bamboo

I just love the pattern and textures of this bamboo close up.

There is a bamboo garden near the lake that you can walk through, you should visit when you come to Canberra. It isn't very large but you would get some good photos.

Lovely texture and patterns. Looks like something has been scratching at it. Looks good on black too :)

@paul10 There were a few water dragons around and their claws are quite long, so maybe they were the culprits.

[Babs]

VML The textures and tones, yet VM Dislike bamboo as a garden plant. A 'friend' insisted on planting some here. Slowly, very slowly I'm winning the war, although it has been...and continues to be a protracted campaign.
