GNARLED LOG IN KIRK POND

I tried to find a word to best describe this old log. The word that kept coming to mind was 'gnarled'. It means 'knobbly, rough, and twisted, especially with age.' That fits, so I am going with it. The golden light on the log and the contrasts between it, the water, and the shoreline attracted me. I find it appealing.

1/200s f/8.0 at 500.0mm iso100

Superb.
I think this qualifies in the Japanese form of "Wabi Sabi" I found this definition on Wikipedia.

Wabi now connotes rustic simplicity, freshness or quietness, and can be applied to both natural and human-made objects, or understated elegance. It can also refer to quirks and anomalies arising from the process of construction, which add uniqueness and elegance to the object. Sabi is beauty or serenity that comes with age, when the life of the object and its impermanence are evidenced in its patina and wear, or in any visible repairs.

It reminds me of a dragon’s head peeking up out of the water! Pretty
