Art 'Au Naturale'

Having wandered around the woods for a while we came upon this fantastic specimen
'Chinese Red Birch'
see the beautiful bark ...
take a closer peek
who'd a thought
nature could paint

so brilliantly?

I love your new glittery background.

There is a lot going on in that bark. As well as being very pretty, it is that very thin layer below the bark that is the workhorse for the hugest tree.

This is simply stunning. I am amazed at how nature imitates art and art nature. The trunk looks like a piece of pottery specially treated to appear as it does. The power, majesty and height of the tree is overwhelming. what beautiful shots these are. Thank you for sharing them!
