The trunk of this tree looks a little worse for wear. I assume the damage is the result of animal activity – there are lots of sheep and also deer in the area. Plenty of squirrels too, although this amount of impact looks a little severe for those bushy-tailed creatures.
I’m not sure if it’s the result of teeth or horns / antlers, but it caught my eye and I took a picture.
The original is a colour image but it’s one of those frames that, for some reason, Negative Lab Pro had trouble with and the results had a nasty green and purple tint. The conversion to monochrome resulted in a more satisfying image. It’s not the first image that I’ve had these sort of issues with – sometimes I can spot frames that might be problematical – but this was not one of them. Maybe a visit to the NLP forum might help resolve the issue.

I like the black and white! I think it highlights the lighting and the texture. 🙂

Thanks Andy. It certainly looks better than the colour version, which is akin to viewing it under the influence of psychedelics!
