E Gaube, Steel Vines 1, digital photography, 10 x 6in (25.4 x 15.24cm), 2016, $25
I was very taken by the sight of a vigorous poison ivy vine twining around a road sign. The rusted metal and textured vines against the smooth gray metal sign are a compelling image.

Lichens
Lichens growing on a tree in Oveido, Florida, are enhanced by judicious use of filters. The delicately lacy texture is beautiful.
CW Birch 15
I seem to be partial to "V" shapes even when formed by curves. The dramatic shape found in this bark pattern is supported by its rich texture and subtle coloration.
CW Poplar Glyphs
There are interesting marks on tree bark, some natural and some man-made. I call them glyphs, non-verbal pictographs which tell a story and which are unique to each tree.
