Tuesdays of Texture – April 14, 2015

Posted on April 14, 2015 by Norm 3.0

Here’s my entry for this week’s Tuesdays of Texture.

These are from a recent visit to the local botanical gardens. I found the the bark on this trunk looked more like a snake than a tree, but it sure has some interesting texture to it.

One thing I’m realizing is that I really have to start taking notes when I go to these places, because if you ask me what type of plant/tree this is, I don’t remember 😦

As always, thanks for looking 🙂

    I hear ya on writing this stuff down – and sometimes I just send a text to myself (or my hubs) with the info and it helps….
    also, this does look like a snake – or like an artist designed in – what a great capture – have never seen anything like this 🙂

    I’ve seen many branches on the ground that I thought were snakes but none quite so spectacular.

    I entered the picture url into google images to find out what it is, and it mostly showed me snakes and lizards. That made me giggle.

    Hi Norm, it’s really like a snake, I imagine it can make lots of people scared in the dark. Nice photo!

    Fascinating, and I am so amazed I don’t need to know the name. 🙂
