Why not capture this? It's great detail, rich colors in the wood. I would have shot it more off center, however. The lighting is pleasing also. Good thinking.

I actually do not think this is amusing.........I adore trees and unlees it was ill, no need to kill it.......

I didn't chop it down for personal amusement... it was crowding out the mulberry tree next to it, and one of them had to go, or neither of them would grow properly.
