blink blink * Were we on a riverbank in Oregon? Man. I'm thinking we might have seen too much while we were on that trip! I don't remember this at ALL! That only means I get to see this new, just like everyone else! :D Love it! The texture, light and shadow, color range, pov ... excellent! (Now be a dear, and go figure out where we were, would you?) :*

Ha! Did you count them while there, or from the photo? Interesting with the circular pattern on the cut surface which can be seen running inwards along the length of the trunk. Also interesting is the petrified looking lower part, and the contrast between the grey dry part and the tan wet area of rot. A lot meets the eye here if one only takes a closer look. :-)

When I saw the title I was wondering where you got my photograph. Great capture of what looks like wet plaster treated with a comb, Bill.

WOW! This is amazing. It also reminds me (okay, here comes my ramble) of a fossilized wooly mammoth tooth I saw on display at some museum I can't remember. I remember the wooly mammoth tooth though, so it's nice to now my priorities are right. I really like the light in this and the way that the shadows, when they do appear, do so as markers of contours. The colors are nicely subtle. This is really fantastic, and now I'm probably going to spend a bit of time looking on Google for images of wooly mammoth teeth.
