Skins of Ancient Trees


Still standing but only with the support of others
a hollow tree with only the bark remaining


I'm sure it provides shelter for many a woodland critter


mosses have settled on it's outer skin


all wrinkled and gnarled


Some bits look more like pebbles than tree bark.

Apologies for not responding to comments at the moment
but hosting visiting family leaves not much spare time!

  2. I'm so enjoying the walks in the woods and along your shoreline. No comments necessary - just the sharing of these sights is enough.

  4. The old tree is beautiful, I am sure that you will get inspired by its skin and that you will embroider something spectacular.
