Forms we do not often see

On my walk today in beautiful weather I passed this root of a fallen tree. It was quite difficult to photograph because the background was in bright sunlight while the root was shaded by trees.
But I like the result showing the wonderful organic shapes very much.

Ha ha, I had the document form in mind. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Me too. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Perhaps shapes would have been clearer :wink: . I am not a native speaker (and writer).
But maybe we should have a category “Forms we don’t like to see”.

Please mark the image as drastic/causing harm/whatever - that’s something nobody wishes to see

Very nice image and edit :clap:

It reminds me the work of polish/brazilian sculptor and ecological activist Franz Krajcberg.

It has something surrealistic. It reminds me to the work of Max Ernst.

Actually, it reminds me somwhat of the worlds of the game Samorost.

I found the subject so beautiful that I took another shot yesterday with a tripod. This way I was able to merge two exposures in GIMP. Overall, there is much less noise in the shadows. Even zooming in to 100% is possible, though the transition from shadow to bright light is still a challenge. I like the cobwebs.

I remember playing 1 and 2; don’t remember if I got to 3. Machinarium was good too.
