Would Not . . .

[RJSorensen]

I am an acknowledged sucker for textured old wood. Items that have seen many seasons change and performed a job in the elements. That dark red tint . . . the bleeding of the wood, always interests me.

Perhaps there is a following here that has regard for such?

20D/100-400

That is fantastic! I really like it, the title is great too.

Beautiful !

Nice shot, looke like it was burnt a little.

[sparker1]

Yeah, I like natural patterns. Nice shot.

[RJSorensen]

Thank you guys . . . and perhaps this piece of wood has seen a fire or even two in it lifetime. I am sure it has a great many stories to tell. This was part of a preserved homestead that was first constructed in 1848. I don't think this piece is quite that old . . . but would be at least a hundred years or so. Those stains of color . . . I just love them.

My kind regards as always . . .

Absolutely! Although for whatever reason I'm fascinated with tree bark. Attached is a picture of a russian olive growing in my parents' front yard.

I have roll after roll of B&W film with nothing but treebark. I always figured I was strange. Well, I am. But anway, I haven't used my digital for many of them.

Nice picture! The tones, contrast, and sharpness are all spot-on!

That is beautiful. The wood just exudes a rich warmness and the texture is palpable. Fantastic.

[musthavemuzk]

is that a crop or macro or?

love the color of it.
seen a few macro shots in the last couple years, but never seen any shot quite like this.
nice job

The pattern and texture are wonderful. Beautiful, rich color. Great shot!

You've managed to incorporate dynamism and movement in a still-life by careful framing and composition. Well seen and well captured.

Well my kindest thanks to lovers of 'Would' How surprised am I to find anyone else in the world that would give this 'Not' a second look . . . it is a zoom in with my 100-400 but not a macro. A tiny selection at the long end of my lens. This is a full frame shot, not cropped or such. I too shoot tree bark . . . .lol. Glad there are other abstracts lovers of nature out there in the world.

I am just flabbergasted . . . I thought I would get hammered for this one aka no response, lol.

You folks are the greatest.

My kind regards as always.
