This week’s photo challenge is to turn the concrete and familiar into something new and mysterious.
I thought of this photo I’d taken last month. I was absolutely fascinated by the gnarled patterns in this big old tree trunk. I couldn’t help but wonder what had caused it to grow in such a way with lines and patterns etched into the wood.

Tree trunks are fascinating in their own right. Nice choice for the prompt Christina.
