Tree Rock

[Rob MacKillop]

Another DP2Q image that reminds me of medium format. I have it in 7:6 format, like my old RB67. The "neutral" colour scheme looks quite 1950s at times. Good detail in the shadows, I think.

Beautiful shot.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, John. It was a relaxing walk. I try to walk for an hour a day, but end up going to the same old places. So it was great to discover a new path in my favourite haunt, the botanic gardens.

Excellent photo Rob, I like the way it is growing from the rock. Mixed media

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Julian. That's what caught my eye.

 

[Martin Carlin]

Another Nice one Rob very interesting Tree. Really like the images your getting out of your new Camera great quality.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Martin. I'm happy with it.

I am a convert now I'll have to search my Mrs. wallet, - and mine! Very nice one there Scotsman.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Ha! I knew it!

 

[Pete Askew]

I like this and I like the vintage feel it has as well. I watch The Quatermass Experiment the other day. A tree eating rock seems quite likely now. RUN AWAY. Well, you'd probably be Ok strolling away in fact. And you'd have time for an ice cream too!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Great series. I was quite scared by it when it was first shown in my early teens.

 

[Pete Askew]

Me too. The series was better than the film I think.

 

[John Allen]

I think I stumbled across his rock eating baby brother a few years ago.

 

[Pete Askew]

And they get away with it too. We should start an awareness campaign - it's time to put a stop to this merciless slaughter of our trees!

Maybe they've just found an unlikely friend. It happens.

True odd couple, must be British. I'm not sure who is eating whom in these photos. I think the trees are doing the damage, but, of course, the rocks will outlast them.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

The difference is an illusion, John. We are all one. We just eat ourselves.

 

[John Allen]

The difference is an illusion, John. We are all one. We just eat ourselves.

True, unless you are a Scot and then you eat things like haggis, skink, and Granny Sookers.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Hmm.
