Laura- Good morning my friend. I am so glad someone else thinks about the bark of a tree that way. Each tree has its own look and if you take a minute to look at the bark and its textures, colors, and design, it is fascinating.
Excellent lighting and clarity. Love the framing. The various colors and the unique design give a wonderful natural abstract.
Outstanding work. Have yourself a most wonderful day, take care, and enjoy. #6224569
