Love the richness of the macro shots. Iv'e got a couple of bark shots of the yew tree , the bark looks so different when the conditions are dry and wet.
The last one is my favourite out of these. I had trouble thinking of what to post. The simple things like wooden posts and wooden boxes didn't even occur to me.
What a delicious wood story you've put together. There's a wonderful wood craft shop up in Leura ... I just adore running my hand across the smoothness of hand crafted wood like in your last shot ... but the au natural version at the top is my favourite.
Nice of you to ask, Ann. These bowls were made by my father, maybe 15 years ago. He had bought himself a lathe. He had loved working with wood all his life and these were simply experiments. The one on its side is composed of hoops of Huon Pine that he scrounged whilst on one of his numerous trips around Tasmania. I store corks, shells and seeds in them.
Oh how marvellous. All the stages of wood! So many beautiful shots here, Julie. Happy Theme Day!
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question - I have British and Australian passports but live in France under my Brit one as it's easier in the European Community.
Wood--it's beautiful any way you look at it!
ReplyDelete'Woodn't' I love to have taken these shots? They're excellent, Julie. You really give us a lot to chew on here.
