Hollow Log

The hollow log is an interesting specimen. I am not all that sure what the draw to this specific log is. Could it be nature’s fine art could it be that it is unusual that a stream of water is running through it, in either case I am not sure exactly what the draw is or was but what I do know is that everyone who saw it stopped and admired it.

I found myself, just like everyone I was with just stop and watch in a somewhat mesmerized trance over what they were seeing. Was it obvious? Of course it was. But yet how often do you see a tree rot in the center fall into a stream and divert water through the cores now missing due to tree rot.

I waited until everyone had a chance to check out the scene and begin to more on before I set up to take the shot. This scene was captured in Cherokee, NC . I really wish there was a lot to say about this tree limb but honestly there is not much to say. The image was shot in a standard fashion no special filters or setup. The camera was set with an exposure of 1/60 sec at 5.6

I believe the wow factor is the fact that its an unusual shot rather than some grandeur image.
