Enigma I
Took this macro photograph with aperture priority, late in the afternoon, it was getting quite dark so I used a flash on this shot! Just love Palm tree bark, this one had been burnt at some stage creating the charcoal sections. I have a few more fascinating photos which I will be uploading soon!
My passion is macro photograhy. I love to find hidden landscapes and abstract art in the bark of trees or in rocks. I also am quite partial to macro floral photography!

Kathie, scattered around Sardinia are some ancient stones, like so many around the world, waiting to be decoded. The stones known as Tomba di Giganti some remain as they did 3,500 years ago. There is very little information about them. I promise if I ever win the lottery, I will send you to photograph all these wonderful stones around the world! You have my word on it!Sx

Beautiful Kathie!! If you rotate this image 90 degree’s anti clockwise you should see a mountain peak with a beautiful sky. The style in my minds eye is very oriental. Fabulous colours & textures. xx

As we made our way up the canyon, and eagerly back to base camp, our eyes were slowly becoming acclimatised to the fading light, but there was still enough light from a waning moon, to make out the strange shapes created by the shadows cast by the near incandescent light.
This was to be our final farewell on leaving this most awesome of landscapes.
Another stunning barkscape!!
