The PhotoHunt theme this week is "Ruin(ed)"
We spent several days in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia, last February. I think this is probably the first picture I took on our first morning there. I just loved the lines and textures of this old "ruined" tree.Please click on the image for the full effect. Happy Saturday, y'all!

You are correct about textures - nice choice.
I love the textures too! Great photo:) And thanks for the drop by!
Wow...the close-up enlarged version is amazing!
agree. you are right to point out how well the lines and textures are exhibited on the ruined tree... :-)
A decaying tree stump is a good choice for a ruin.
Nice picture ..
Wow, you're right, the blown up image is great!
Wonderful. Amazing how something "ruined" can be so interesting and beautiful.
interesting how nature can b harsh and beautiful all at the same time.
A great image.

I looked at the original size and you have a great capture of the texture. :)
How I love the textures of trees, especially the bark on trunks! This is a wonderful shot!
It looks even better if you enlarge it!
I always thought a ruined tree was sad, and it is, but at least you made a beautiful picture! I love it!
I remember the good old days in my province. Nice subject. Mine is up. Happy weekend!
Very beautiful for ruined...
Me too! Nice take...
Yes, I agree with you! There is a lot of artistic value in the textures and the shadows and coloration.
We used to live in Virginia, and my Mommie and Daddie always wanted to visit Colonial Williamsburg but never got a chance before we moved back to FL.
Great take on this week's theme.
I love old trees too.
Not what I expected to see about reading the words "Colonial Williamsburg" but definitely can see why that tree caught your (photographic) eye! :)
the idea of things being ruined that are part of nature and so beautiful is just wrong I love your shot
Oh how I'd love to see Colonial Williamsburg!!! I hope you post more photos of it sometime.
I did Photo Hunt today, too. I hope you get a chance to visit and leave your link!

that is an awesome picture! Have a great weekend. Come by and see me some times! see my ruined phote
Now that is clever for the theme. I was having some trouble with it. I kept thinking of some 'fallen woman" or my "401 K" as being ruined.. LOL
New site of Rambling Woods
That is a wonderful old "ruin". I love the way old trees and logs gradually fade back into nothing. Some of the shapes are fascinating.
wow! the blown up image was amazing! rich in details and textures! great entry flamingo fotos!
Nice take! What a giant tree!
It's a nice shot of the fallen tree. Great details.
That photo is wonderful full-size - I love it!
amazing!
i agree and who knows that tree is more than a hundred years old:)
this must be a very old tree.
very interesting photo. looks like its been there forever.
Beautiful. I love the look of old wood too. Thanks for visiting mine and have a great week!
I can relate to the teXtural appeal of bark and old growth trees. The rough hewn fence posts are great too.
it must have been a big tree huh? it looks beautiful though.
