Whirlpool ferns coming from the tree


"I think I could have done more with this, I guess there is still time. I actually like working with stuff that goes away, sometimes very quickly. Seeing what I can do with what's available. I played a little with texture and color here. It was raining like hell at the time. I saw this tree which had fallen across the stream in the winter and there was this perfect yoda-hut hole in the base of it. I have been thinking about decay a lot recently, and life. The tree had died but there were these mushrooms growing out of it and beetles eating the bark, it was going back into the ground and so I guess I just went with that."
