Stumped

[Chris Dodkin]

Result of last years pruning - does't take long for the elements to start to degrade the stump in the AZ climate

Looks almost like a sundial, Chris.

Great textures Chris. What was it before it became a stump (I can almost imagine the reply, but it's worth a try I suppose!! ).

 

[Chris Dodkin]

A tree Pete

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks Brian - I guess it is showing the passage of time in a way

 

[Pete Askew]

You didn't disappoint Chris!!

We'll be doing matinees at the pier during the summer season Pete - bringing back vintage comedy to the blue-rinse brigade.

Not being a arborist, I can't be 100% sure - but I believe it was a Pinion Pine before it was a stump

Good shot, Chris. Photoshop would degrade it quicker...

 

[Dave Green]

Nice and abstracty

I'll get Ina to check, not only is she a qualified arbiculturist (too cold in winter) she is also a wood technologist!!
