Description

This is another of my older black and white prints, scanned into and toned with Photoshop. For some reason I've always liked this image. I'm not sure if it the texture of the bark, the shapes formed by the shadows and highlights, or what it is exactly. Perhaps it is a combination that adds up to something greater than the sum of its parts. Whatever the case, I wanted to share it with my friends here on Renderosity. Thank you for taking the time to look and for your comments. ----- "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." -Les Brown

By going back and re-evaluating ones work and then making use of our new tools as to the computer and software, we not only breath new life into previous work, we begin to appreciate it once more. That is the beauty of looking back and re-interpreting it.
