The Worm of Artistry
Uploaded: September 29, 2010
I didn't know what category to put this one in, so I chose " Elements of design". It's a natural design. Does anyone know what made it? Lens aperture f/5, shutter speed 1/15sec, focal length 80ml, ISO 1600.

Well, Chris, it's a beautifully crafted outline of a hand, but whoever made it apparently preferred to remain anonymous! Wonderful find, and very well captured. #1312895John Connolly September 30, 2010
A unique find and capture Chris! I wouldn't have a clus as to what made it, and yes Mary, it does look like a hand! #8939721Tammy Espino October 01, 2010
Have no idea what it is, very different though. Is it worm wood?LOL #8941412Chris Ebben October 01, 2010
This is the reverse side of this one, the outer bark. Worms burrow in under the bark leaving a trail behind them. This one was obviously very artistic. #8941753Carolyn J. Connolly October 04, 2010

Hi Chris, well this is a cool design!Chris Ebben October 19, 2010
Isn't it wonderful!! Thanks for the comments. I'd say it was one worm, just the path it chose to take turned out like this. #8984554Laura E. Swan October 27, 2010
Wow. Really? A worm did this??? AMAZING and so very unique! I thought the same thing, too. Wood Worm, maybe.This is even better than elephant art. Do you know what that is, Chris? Certain elephants seem to be gifted with the oil painting brushes and people pay BIG BUCKS to have artwork that the elephants make.
THIS IS A PRIZED PHOTO! :)))!!!
