Seeing things in the beauty of bark Photo Gallery by Bernard Bosmans at pbase.com

Seeing things in the beauty of bark

The first time my eyes came to rest on the native trees of Australia, I was in awe by the sheer beauty of its shape of trunk and twisting branches,the fragrance of its leaves, the browns and greys of lifting bark, and the exposed under-belly with its different hues and texture.
In this gallery I like to share, the inspiration I drew from simply stopping and taking a closer look at the world of trees and in this case the artistry of bark.

A man's dying is more the survivors' affair than his own. -Thomas Mann	'Blessed is the man who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed' was the ninth beatitude. - Alexander Pope	Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.--George Washington Carver	You must learn from the mistakes of others. You can't possibly live long enough to make them all yourself.-Sam Levenson
Common sense ain't common. -Will Rogers	...So we grew together...	From the earliest times...	What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything? -Vincent van Gogh
I like nonsense. It wakes up the brain cells. -Dr. Seuss	If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.-Maya Angelou -	I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge...	Life becomes religious whenever we make it so...
