Tree Bark

This is a random collection of tree bark photos from our walks. My favorites are the camouflage looking trees. 

Many of these were taken during winter. A few of the trees have seen better days.
This one below is the crepe myrtle in our front yard.

This last one is covered bark but I love the whimsical fuzz of the vines growing up the trees here. I know vines are not good for the trees but they need to grow too.
I hope you enjoyed these southern trees.

Thank you for stopping by! ~Val

  1. I love the last shot with the vines growing up. Wonderful tree trunks. I like the camouflage trees, I even learned how to paint them but I need more practice. Nature is the best inspiration.

  2. Identification of trees by their bark is a great skill. I very much enjoyed these photographs. Wouldn't it be great if more people focused on things like this?

  11. That fuzzy one really is quite strange! There is one near to my home with spikes all over the trunk. I find it quite scary!

  12. Como precisamos das árvores!
    O primeiro tronco me lembra uma goiabeira da casa da minha mãe.
    Fico encantada com sua sensibilidade ao fotografá-las.
