A Personal Photo Challenge - Trees - Petrified Tree Trunks - Tywyn


































































This month the subject for A Personal Photo Challenge is '''Trees'.  I have chosen to share a couple of photos that I took earlier this week of some Petrified Wood that is part of the Ancient Forest exposed on the beach here in Tywyn, which I wrote about on Travel Tales back in March 2014.

  5. Beautiful petrified wood! I first saw petrified wood as a child when visiting New Mexico, it is certainly an interesting subject. With the water and sand in your photos, all the better. :)

  6. In the last, it looks like a giant cat sleeping in the water, which would be a very odd thing indeed. Wonderful photos capturing the gnarled, ancient tree. Very intriguing!

  7. Very interesting, although I feel a sadness for the grand tree it once was.

  8. Such an interesting photo with this piece and the water and sand. This beautiful piece of old wood looks like a sculpture belonging in a museum. I like it best here on the beach but it will probably be washed away!

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
