Almost Wordless Wednesday: A Tree

We pass this tree on the way up the hill to one of the food markets in town. I see so many thing when I look at it. I posted the image on Facebook and asked friends what they saw and got such wonderful responses. So, I thought I'd share it here on the blog as well. I see women's bodies, a donkey's head, barn owls in profile. What do you see?

  3. Saw the woman's body, the donkey head and thanks to Red the elephant foot but can't see the owls. Darn. That is a cool tree.

  5. Wow, what an interesting tree. I see women's bodies too, and I see a couple of fish, one fish with a body and one fish face in profile. I can see a lot of "faces" in it, but not specifically any animal. Very cool!

  7. Splendid tree! I see what you see, and the donkey is kissing the side of the head of a smiling Buddha-like treeperson with closed eyes. Or maybe the donkey is kissing the head of a smiling seal.

  8. To me they look like ghosts or spirits, rising up with O-shaped eyes and mouths. I don't see the donkey at all, but I can see the woman's body.

  9. Can't believe you are posting x-rated photographs now. Oh, wait a minute...it's art, isn't it? There seems something unsettling in the intertwined bodies but it is fascinating. My imagination just takes flight at all the various things I see.

    1. NCmountainwoman-- Oh yes, it's definitely the most beautiful natural form of art. It reminded me of a painting.

  11. Now that's my kind of tree. You may remember the twisted maple at the edge of our front yard. We saved that one precisely because of its weird shape. And I would love to have the one you photographed somewhere in our yard.
