While out in the countryside near Portland, I found a couple beautiful Birch Trees, their bark was old and worn, and thought you all might enjoy seeing it. Layers of bark are added each year, so a person can actually count the age if they start to peel it.

I do love birch trees and I think the Woodpeckers do too. Nice presentation Verena.

Verena - I like the shallow depth of field, so the background sky is blurred. Composition is simple, and very effective. Thad

I happen to be a fan of birch trees so this appeals to me. A simple but beautiful shot!

The layers of bark are somewhat a metaphor to each of us. How many layers do we carry for the years of our lives. Excellent, V.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until they speak
Even though the branches look a little bare, there's a tranquil beauty about this shot! Very nice quality, faved.

Enjoy nature, Take nothing but photographs and leave nothing but footprints
I have always found these trees quite fascinating! Crisp and superb details, with the tree really popping from the background! Awesome work, Verena! Faved.

In order to discover who you are, first learn who everybody else is; you're what's left.
Very nice capture.
