Bark(ing) up the (wrong) tree!

Been taking snaps of bark for about 5 years now so I thought I'd share some of my favourites with you. The rest reside on my page...enjoy

Great post

 

It's nice to see I'm not the only one who loves the beauty of bark. My fave is that of Betula albosinensis and Stuartia sinensis. Gorgeous.

Nice collection. you should check out this guy - Cedric Pollet. He has made a book called 'BARK' full of photos. I only found out about him when a friend came here and saw my collection and remarked he'd seen the book. Boohoo thought I'd get in first

I've seen the book and pawed over it longingly on more than one occasion . However, I couldn't justify buying it when there are so many more practical books that I NEED first. I wonder if Ham' will it in his lending project at any point ?
